Yes, this is not supported.

C++11 support in GCC 4.8 and 4.9 was experimental and unstable, and is
not ABI compatible with C++11 code compiled by GCC 5 or later.

Specifically, there were changes to std::chrono::system_clock, and
std::error_category, and std::condition_variable. If those types are
used in the old dynamic libraries, particularly across the library API
boundary, then you are likely to run into problems. There are probably
other incompatibilities that I'm forgetting. I don't bother to
remember all the incompatibilities, because what you're trying to do
is not supported and so I don't spend any effort memorising all the
ways it can fail.
