this is valid concern. Usually when using new compiler, we will need tune
the bot a little to exclude certain issues, some are input by users. Of
course, we will limit pattern to be very specific to avoid missing real
issues. Based on feedback, i will switch back to gcc-7.3, and does more
homework to understand the diffs of gcc-8.1.
