The URL supplied by David (Holmes) lists 4.8.5 as the gcc version for

I read that as "this is the gcc version you should be building JDK9 on".

I asked for this change to be put in 10 and 11 because I don't know the
minimum/recommended gcc version for jdk10 and 11. I'm assuming it's
the same as 9 until told otherwise.
Building OpenJDK-10 or OpenJDK-11 requires OpenJDK-9, so you won't be able
to build them in a fresh SLE-12:SP3 installation anyway.
SLE-11:* doesn't even have OpenJDK-8 and is also going to be out of support
next year anyway.
I don't necessarily disagree bringing your changes into JDK-8 or JDK-9,
but I don't think they make sense to introduce them to JDK-10 and JDK-11.
