    If the base GCC isn't enough, and GCC_REQD=4.5 to 6, use gcc6.

    gcc4.8,4.9,5 have bugs preventing them from being useful within pkgsrc
    for the primary use case that finds them handy:
    glibc + FORTIFY + those GCC versions = build failures.

    Additionally, requiring fewer versions of GCC is an improvement for
    the vast majority of use-cases considered.

    We might want to bump this further than gcc6 later on, but this is a
    big improvement for CentOS builds.
