That's a terrible idea. There are many people who don't care at all about
16bit
Commit 9b4382614be ("Bug 787222 - Can't convert from 16 bit to 16 bit
floating point.") introduced a GCC version check to configure, and
a warning that GCC 7.2.0 should not be used.
While earlier release of GCC 7.2 had this bug, it was fixed in 7.2
branch later. It looks like Ubuntu and Debian
