My 14.04 machine received the gcc update after the -116 update, just as
others have noted.

I resolved this by booting into -112 then:

sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-4.4.0-116 linux-headers-4.4.0-116-generic
sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-xenial

And then rebooted into -116 with everything working.

I think this is easier and less likely to run into later problems than
trying to manually rebuild DKMS modules.

For reference,

$ gcc --version
gcc-4.8.real (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4
