Description

Provides a custom toolchain built with Crosstool-NG for compatibility with VS Code Remote on older Linux distributions. This toolchain includes a modern version of glibc and associated runtime libraries, allowing patched VS Code server binaries to run on systems where the default glibc is too old. It is typically used in conjunction with patchelf to modify executables to use the custom dynamic linker and runtime library paths.
