core: support host gcc of the future
When we do a release, we know only of a set of gcc versions that the host may have. But in the future, distributions with newer gcc versions may show up. Currently, we do not recognise those versions, and thus we do as if they were older than the oldest we know of. This means that a set of packages become unselectable, when they should be. We fix that by capping the detected version to the highest we know of. Reported-by: gargar_ on IRC Signed-off-by: "Yann E.
