It's not a maintenance burden on gcc, though. I think we should have the gcc configure script provide a way to add a preprocessor macro. That would not be hard for somebody to implement (perhaps Matthias), it should not pose a significant maintenance burden going forward, and it would make it more likely that distributors would use it along with --with-pkgversion to give people like Matthias a hook to use if they want it.
