WireGuard requires? In that case you'll be running with a custom
kernel. Why can't you just update your gcc from the same external
repo, at the same time?

I just backported to EL7.3 and felt nauseous the whole time. Not sure
I have the stomach for EL6...

the elrepo kernel for centos 6 is mainline or LT

the kernel is compiled with gcc 4.4.7 and won't run modules compiled with newer gcc, the patch is only for older gcc support, not for kernel, I don't think that anyone will complain updating to kernel 4.4+ on el6

the old approach was to compile the module with gcc 4.4.7 commenting the two lines in socket.c and after that to build the wg tools with gcc 4.8 but with this patch the compile is straightforward
