I'm don't understand your point.
What possible difference would it make to a new Linux user whether he
had the latest gcc version? A new Linux user -- particularly those
from the Windows world -- has quite enough to learn about bash and
text editors. He can certainly make do without the latest and greatest
compiler, can't he?

Perhaps one of the KDE mailing lists would be a more appropriate place
to ask this question.
