If by avr8-gnu-toolchain you mean the packages published by 
Atmel/Microchip: probably some time between 2030 and 2035 - even their 
newest release from 2022 is horribly out-dated.


At least on Linux it is relatively easy to compile everything yourself - 
you need CMake and a compatible host system compiler (GCC is good). 
There is a build.sh script to do all the work for you.

I have never tried it on Windows, but there are older packages available 
that were compiled with MinGW/MSys, so I guess it should work with that.

There are instructions on the Wiki: https://github.com/avrdudes/avrdude/wiki


I myself even compile the AVR-GCC and binutils packages, since I really 
don't like being limited by some ancient dialect of C++. I can post some 
notes and a script for doing this on Linux if there is interest.
