it actually specifies a *minimum* compiler version.
Thanks for this statement, i won't like the idea of having an old
compiler just for building the kernel :)

... but basically not for compiler stuff. The kernel people (me
included) try really hard to make the kernel always work well with
recent gcc's, often before said gcc versions even get officially
released.
That's good to hear but it seems to me that at the i2c stuff there is
still some work to be done....
