Applied to master, thanks.

What do we do with the older gcc versions ? We now have 4.9, 5, 6, 7, 8
and 9, which is quite a bit more than the normal number of 3 versions
we want to support.

Arnout: do you still think gcc 4.9 is needed at this point ? If it is
the case, should we keep gcc 4.9, but drop gcc 5 and 6 ?

Best regards,

Thomas
