Something similar, it's done via SIG. We have SIG virt in which we
build Xen packages among others. And there's a SIG which building newer
version of GCC, we already use it to build the Linux kernel with a newer
version of GCC.
So we should be able to setup the Xen packages to build with a newer
version of GCC, at least in CentOS 7. (I still have to look again at
CentOS 8 or Stream.)
