As Vladimir said, it probably isn't worth the effort at this point for
us to wind back the version we recommend, as I suspect not enough of us
can conveniently test with older versions on a regular basis.  That
said, since I think the increased GCC requirement was due to a bug
related to nested functions, it may be that this improves the situation
for those who need to use older versions despite our documented
requirement.
