Tool versions for RTEMS 6.1 release?

[Karel Gardas]

Hello Sebastian,

so what is the best way to test GCC 13.2 with RTEMS 6? Is

../source-builder/sb-set-builder --prefix=<prefix> 
--with-rtems-gcc=tools/rtems-gcc-13-newlib-head 6/rtems-all

canonical way how to build those tools for RTEMS 6? Or is there some 
trickery involved I do not see yet?

Thanks,
Karel
