## Why

Every build logs:

```
! Patch for RcppParallel 6.2.0 did not apply cleanly; skipping patched build.
```

RcppParallel 6.x rewrote its build system. `src/Makevars.in` no longer contains the `USE_TBB=Linux` block that `system-tbb.patch` edited (it is now a short `@VAR@` template driven by `tools/config/configure.R`), so the patch can never apply again.

The workaround it implemented is obsolete too. 6.x bundles **oneTBB 2022** and builds it with cmake, which works on musl and with g++ 8-15, so the 5.x reason for linking a system TBB is gone. Linking one is now harmful: `install.libs.R` symlinks the system libraries into `RcppParallel/lib`, so the published binary depends on a TBB the consumer does not have — the same failure mode as `fs` and libuv.

What is still broken upstream is the **link order**. `configure.R` names the TBB directory with `-Wl,-L`, and gcc expands its own search dirs into `-L` options ahead of anything forwarded verbatim with `-Wl,`:

```
$ gcc -v -o t t.c -Wl,-L/usr/local/lib64 -ltbb
-L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/8  -L/lib/../lib64  -L/usr/lib/../lib64  ...  -L/usr/local/lib64
```

So on any build host with a distro TBB installed, `-ltbb` resolves to that library and `RcppParallel.so` records *its* SONAME (`libtbb.so.12`, or `libtbb.so.2` for the classic Intel TBB on el8/el9) instead of the bundled `libtbb.so`.

## Changes

- Replace `RcppParallel/system-tbb.patch` with `RcppParallel/bundled-tbb-link-order.patch`, which changes the three `-Wl,-L` occurrences in `tools/config/configure.R` to plain `-L`.
- Scope the RcppParallel entry to `>=6.0.0` and widen `platforms` to `*`.
- Drop the `rstan` entry: its `-DTBB_INTERFACE_NEW` is already emitted by `RcppParallel::CxxFlags()` once the bundled oneTBB is used, and its `-I/usr/local/include` was an el8/el9 path applied on every platform.
- `.pre-commit-config.yaml`: exclude `local/patches/*.patch` from `trailing-whitespace`, `end-of-file-fixer` and `editorconfig-checker`. They rewrite blank context lines (` ` -> ``) in every diff in the registry; `git apply` happens to tolerate it today, but a patch with meaningful trailing whitespace would be silently corrupted. The excludes are per-hook so `validate patch registry` still runs.
- README: the RcppParallel example described the 5.x problem.

## Verification

Built in the published images:

| image | NEEDED | RPATH | loads with system libtbb removed |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `build-env-alpine:3.24` | `libtbb.so` | `$ORIGIN/../lib` | yes |
| `build-env-redhat:8` | `libtbb.so`, `libtbbmalloc.so` | `$ORIGIN/../lib` | yes |
| `build-env-ubuntu:noble` | `libtbb.so` | `$ORIGIN/../lib` | yes |

Without the patch the same builds record `libtbb.so.12` (alpine, ubuntu) or `libtbb.so.2` (el8, the classic 2018 TBB) and fall back to the system library at load time.

rstan 2.32.7 compiles and loads against the patched RcppParallel on ubuntu noble with no makevars override and with the system libtbb moved away. On el8 it also compiles; loading it there is blocked by an unrelated image bug (see below).

## Behaviour change

Requires the paired build-env-images PR (drops `TBB_INC`/`TBB_LIB`) and an image rebuild — with those env vars set, configure still takes the system-TBB branch. After that, RcppParallel binaries ship their own oneTBB and are self-contained.

## Also found, not fixed here

- The `uvr lock failed ... GLIBC_2.29 not found` errors in the same log are the `-gnu` uvr artifact on el8's glibc 2.28; fixed in build-env-images.
- `build-env-redhat:8` R 4.5.3/4.6.0 cannot load `stats` (`libRlapack.so: undefined symbol: dgemmtr_`): the el8 R RPM symlinks `libRblas.so` to openblas 0.3.15, which predates that symbol. R 4.4.3 and el9 are fine. Belongs in the R RPM build.

## What

Replace RcppParallel's `disable-tbb` registry patch with `system-tbb`: build RcppParallel against the system oneTBB instead of stripping TBB entirely.

## Why

`disable-tbb` skipped the bundled Intel TBB build by forcing the TinyThread backend, which also removed RcppParallel's TBB linkage.
That broke every dependent that links TBB through `RcppParallelLibs()` -- `rstan` and the whole Stan cluster -- with `symbol not found: tbb::detail::r1::observe`.
This is the root cause behind the large "blocked on RcppParallel" / rstan clusters (issues #115, #120): the packages were not individually broken, they were all waiting on one TBB-linkage regression.

## Change

`system-tbb.patch` leaves `USE_TBB` unset (so the bundled build is still skipped on musl and g++ 15) but keeps the TBB backend and links the system oneTBB now shipped in the build-env images:

```
PKG_CXXFLAGS += -DRCPP_PARALLEL_USE_TBB=1 -DTBB_SUPPRESS_DEPRECATED_MESSAGES=1 -DTBB_INTERFACE_NEW
PKG_LIBS += -ltbb -ltbbmalloc
```

Scoped to `alpine` + `ubuntu-2604`, the only platforms where the bundled build fails; redhat and older ubuntus keep the bundled TBB.

## Requires

The companion image change that exports `TBB_INC`/`TBB_LIB` so `RcppParallelLibs()` hands the system-TBB flags to dependents: build-env-images PR #12. Both must ship together.

## Verified

In `build-env-alpine:3.24` with the new images:
- RcppParallel builds against oneTBB 2022, no ABI errors, patch applies cleanly to the target clone.
- `RcppParallelLibs()` returns `-L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -ltbb -ltbbmalloc`.
- rstan links (`-ltbb -ltbbmalloc`) and loads with no missing symbol -- `* DONE (rstan)`, trial build exit 0.

e59590e2d6 fix: RcppParallel disable-TBB source patch (env var was a no-op) (#106)
All checks were successful
ci/crow/cron/process-updates/2 Pipeline was successful
## Summary

Fixes the RcppParallel patch, which was a **no-op** and left the build hanging.

The previous registry entry set `env: { RCPP_PARALLEL_USE_TBB: "0" }`. But `RCPP_PARALLEL_USE_TBB` is a **compile-time `-D` flag** in RcppParallel's Makevars — it is never read from the environment. So the override did nothing: `USE_TBB=Linux` (hardcoded from `uname`) still triggered the **bundled Intel TBB build**, which hangs/fails on musl (Alpine) and newer toolchains (g++ 15 on ubuntu-2604). The `Applying patch …` log only meant the env was set, not that it had any effect.

## Fix

Replace the env entry with a **source patch** (`local/patches/RcppParallel/disable-tbb.patch`) on `src/Makevars.in` that, on Linux:

- leaves `USE_TBB` unset → the whole bundled-TBB build/link path is skipped (no hang), and
- forces `PKG_CXXFLAGS += -DRCPP_PARALLEL_USE_TBB=0` → the sources compile the **TinyThread** backend (needed because `RcppParallel.h` otherwise auto-defaults TBB on for glibc Linux).

## Verification

In a Linux container, applying the patch and running `R CMD INSTALL RcppParallel`:

```
bundled_TBB_build=0      # bundled TBB build never runs
* DONE (RcppParallel)    # installs via TinyThread
```

## Note

bincraft's `apply_source_patch` shells out to `patch`. If a build-env image lacks the `patch` tool (common on Alpine), the patch will report "did not apply cleanly" and fall back to an unpatched (hanging) build. If that happens, the follow-up is to switch bincraft's patch application to `git apply` (git is always present) — happy to do that if needed.
