Hm, this silently expects a gcc version < 20, which we should expect in 
about seven-eight years [1].   I am thinking about the possibility of 
silent (but unlikely) breaks when someone in far future uses a gcc 20 
against a kernel with this line.  Probably we should not care about 
that today, yet, right?
