We do give them out.

As an evaluator you can file support tickets to get help from our support team and engineering.

In this case the answer to your problem is as follows:

(a) Make sure you set the right flags to enable using the runtimes you want.

See Chapter 3 "Base Library Configurations"

also see: https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/kbentry29

and

(b) Make sure you install any additional runtimes you want to use.

See Chapter 2 "Installing Add-ons"

Cheers,
Carlos.
