Yeah, it is very common. Lots of distributions patch their
toolchains such that they don't compile firmware code correctly.

Firmware isn't a common target, so I understand that it happens.

For coreboot we recommend to build a vanilla toolchain using known
good versions. We also have a script to do that. (The script is at
util/crossgcc/buildgcc in the coreboot repo.)
