That is not what the documentation says.
I quote from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes
" Note that the latest compilers (egcs, pgcc, gcc 2.8) may do Bad
Things while compiling your kernel, particularly if absurd
optimizations (like -O9) are used. Caveat emptor. Currently, the only
C compiler available in a binary distribution is egcs. Version 1.0.3
seems okay; if you have to have a binary, you may be successful using
that. In general, however, gcc-2.7.2.3 is known to be stable, while
egcs and others have not been as thoroughly tested yet."
