cr1901_modern: because binutils literally has a branch on whether the triple has "linux"
<
whitequark>
there's no real reason for it

whitequark, then what is it in?
<

whitequark>
yes, I'm sure it's calcium
<
whitequark>
let me throw it in water and set on fire

so the oxide layer protects it from further oxidation?
<
whitequark>
yeah, passivation
<
whitequark>
actually, no, that doesn't even count as passivation
<
whitequark>
more like not being active enough?
<
sb0>
hmm, maybe we can get rid of that layer of crap by evaporating it under vacuum
<
sb0>
thermal evaporation tables say CaO can be done with a tungsten basket
