What about moving to a tabs-based AboutSystem, and split general,
credits and, *a new*, details tabs where such gcc hybridation details
could be displayed?
The AboutSystem window could reduce a bit his screen estate in the
process, making it looks less bloated...

I'm not in general to hide info into command line tools that only
advanced users will know, and I feel that user support will be more
happy to ask "what's displayed in AboutSystem, tab Details, ABI
field?" than "open a Terminal... sorry, open the leaf menu, goes to
apps, select Terminal, then type sysinfo and hit return, okay? do you
the line where it says ABI? ...

Clean GUI is not simplist.

My .02 cent.
