linux gcc versions that compile spring

[malric]

What are the gcc versions on which spring compiles (where I can find such a list) ? The page http://springrts.com/wiki/Building_Spring_on_Linux does specify "4.x serie should be safe", but I have tried to compile with gcc 4.4 (centos 6.5, not my main system) and I got errors in rts/System/float3.h (easily fixable) and in rts/lib/assimp/code/BlenderScene.cpp (looks kind of ugly, did not try to fix it).

As a note, I was not even trying to compile to play online, just to check on the map loading speed problems that were reported on 0.96.

GCC >=4.5~4.6 work

gcc 4.8.2 works for me.

current development version checks for gcc >= 4.6

not sure if 4.5 works, if so, this check could be adjusted.

Just checked, 4.5.4 did not work due to some file in assimp (I guess code of 0.96 was not checking as I did not get any error at cmake). Think the check is correct.

I have successfully compiled with GCC 4.9.0 on linux x64
