Hm, yes...but not really like that :) different gcc version could
produce different assembly lay out...and sometimes, it could screw up
things like the assumption of field offset, register optimization,
prolog and epilog of a function etc

in short, to make sure it's 100% working with other kernel module and
main kernel image (in the same kernel version), use exactly same gcc
version.
