a/kernel-generic-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
a/kernel-huge-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
a/kernel-modules-4.14.52-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
ap/sox-14.4.2-x86_64-6.txz: Rebuilt.
Rebuilt to drop libssp dependency. We're no longer building that with gcc
since glibc already includes a built-in SSP implementation.
d/gcc-8.1.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
Shared library .so-version bump.
This is taken from the gcc-8-branch of the svn repo on 20180626, revision
r262159. All packages have been tested for build failures and all new FTBFS
issues are fixed - I think we're down to the six possibly obsolete X drivers
(geode, r128, s3virge, savage, sis, and tseng) and virtuoso-ose.

d/libtool-2.4.6-x86_64-8.txz: Rebuilt.
Recompiled to update embedded GCC version number.
k/kernel-source-4.14.52-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/db48-4.8.30-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt.
Patched to fix a symbol collision with gcc8.
n/netatalk-3.1.11-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
Thanks to Matthew Schumacher for updating the build script and providing
some useful config file examples.
extra/pure-alsa-system/sox-14.4.2-x86_64-6_alsa.txz: Rebuilt.
isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt.
