Comment (by jdemeyer):
Replying to [comment:21 drkirkby]:
> b) Although William was annoyed when Sage would not build with gcc 3.4
series due to "ratpoints", and was keen to get Sage working with gcc
3.4.x, I think the chances of that happening are very remote now. There is
too much code that will not compile with such an old version of gcc. So
one could consider removing all the checks associated with gcc 3.4.x, and
simply accept that gcc 4.0.1 is the minimum version. That could take quite
a bit of code out, and would mean that SAGE_USE_OLD_GCC could be removed
from the list of environment variables.
I would wait with this until #12369 is merged.
