No idea why this check is there currently, though. Stephan? Kay?

More or less only a reminder nowadays that you are stepping into unknown territory. When in ancient times the GCC ABI was more in flux than it appears to be in today (and thankfully it appears to be in no flux at all for the last couple years), it was important to carefully check whether the OOo code base continued to work OK with a fresh compiler. Today, what typically happens is that the first adventurous soul to try a new compiler bumps that #elif, sees that everything works (at least appears to), and all are happy.
