 This is a ticket to note that Coverity does not appear to like the gcc
 version going from one to two digits. Since the Coverity Scan support for
 free users is minimal, I asked on the GCC mailing list if anyone had
 insight (https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/2020-October/234073.html).

 This is completely outside our control and this is just a tracking ticket
 to note that Coverity Scan reports will be run against the 5 branch until
 this is fixed. This will likely be of limited use since rtems 5 is stable
 and changes are minimal compared to the rtems master.

 If it really is a two digit major issue (unconfirmed if this works for gcc
 9), I could do Coverity builds using a special toolchain based on gcc 9.
