I'm fine with this in general - do we have needs of bumping the requirement for
GCC 15 though? IMO we should bump once we are requiring actual C++14
in some place.
Jakub's dwarf2asm patch yesterday uses C++14 if available, and I
remember seeing a couple of other patches that would have been simpler
with C++14 available.
As of the version requirement as you say only some minor versions of the GCC 5
series are OK I would suggest to say we recommend using GCC 6 or later
but GCC 5.5 should also work?
Aren't we already specifying a minor revision with 4.8.3 for C++11?
Another possibility would be to just say GCC 5, and adjust that upward
if we run into problems.
