Yes. But as mentioned, we don't have a really good way to do that. I
guess we can do something similar to what "cc-option" does, but that
will end up doing it for every single kernel build. I'd love to have
something like this be done at kconfig time (along with all the
*other* crazy conditional compiler options we do), but I guess that's
a largely independent issue.

And afaik, it will basically disallow every gcc version since 4.5 up
until 4.9.2 gets released. And afaik, even current gcc actually fails
the compare-debug test for at least some inputs, so ...
