No objections to the patch itself, but this seems like quite the odd approach. Sure those old compilers might be a bit faster, but they also report many fewer legitimate warnings and such. A full tree doesn't take that long? A full recompile sess than 40s here and src/backend alone is much faster. ISTM that if it's currently too slow, improving the concurrency of the build a bit more is a wiser path...
