I agree, although I'd think a similar investigation is required to move to GCC 4.9+. To rephrase my previous point, I'd expect that most platforms fall into two groups: either the system compiler is ancient, in which case something like devtoolset is required anyway, or the system compiler is relatively modern, in which case there is no difference between depending on GCC >= 4.9 vs. GCC >= 5.
