@flokli you have access to an aarch64 machine right? Could you test this change a bit?

I think using a different gcc for different architectures is a bad idea, guaranteed to cause lots of confusion. Maybe we should just stick to GCC 9 for now.

Definitely not ideal, but this needs to be resolved for 21.03. Users/maintainers of other platforms need to step up as well.
