Using multiple versions of GCC in the same package is poorly supported

since the recent 'core-updates' merge, causing these obscure errors.

The actual problem with FreeHDL is that it assumes std::string,

std::hash, etc is available in the default namespace, which is why it

was built with GCC 5 instead of the default GCC 7. I found a patch over

at Arch that makes it work with newer versions of GCC and C++:

I applied it to our package with commit

1a044e3936ac4c1ba1575fe791bf59577b039cf9 and removed the GCC 5 input.
