The WebKitGTK buildbot for debian stable (stretch) has been failing to build WebKit since we raised the compiler version to GCC 7. Since on Debian stable (stretch) there is no GCC 7, the tradeoff agreed was to use clang. Today I have switched this bot to use the clang available on Debian stretch (clang-3.8). But the build is still failing. Here is the log: https://build.webkit.org/builders/GTK%20Linux%2064-bit%20Release%20Debian%20Stable%20%28Build%29/builds/23323/steps/compile-webkit/logs/stdio

Seems it was decided to not longer support libstdc++-6 https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2019-May/030619.html

I have an internal sysgroup ticket somewhere requesting that this bot be upgraded to Buster.
