It's not a problem for in-tree platforms (I do hope the edk2 patch
series will include the patch for OvmfPkg), but it will require all
out-of-tree platforms to be updated.

Yes; I think the library instance should consist of one totally empty C
file, and an |MSFT specific C file providing the external definition of
_fltused. When building for GCC, the lib instance should compile to an
empty object (archive) file.

In my opinion, of course.

Thanks
Laszlo
