I said as long as 4.8.5 works, it is fine with me.  If 4.8.2 can be made
to work easily that is useful for the few people who would want to run
GCC 11 on Ubuntu 14 ("Trusty") (note this is EOL already).

> Looking at release dates 4.8.5 was in June 2015 while 4.8.2 in October 2013 which is a pretty big gap. I'd for moving the needle as far as we reasonably can since this is a leap anyways. @Segher do you have a reason in mind for the higher versioning?

It's just that that is the latest 4.8 release, and it is what I see on
all still supported systems that use 4.8.

Arnd Bergmann made a neat overview showing this (and many other things):
