Makes sense. Yes, the upgrade works.

I did not use the old patches which appear to try to make do with older
compilers. It might get harder to maintain them as the code becomes
dependent on more recent compilers (as we already saw here).

If someone could confirm whether it is alright to expunge the patches, I
can submit a patch for upgrade.

Only one of the patches isn't related to gcc version. It looks like this:

-install(FILES ${man_1} DESTINATION share/man/man1)
+install(FILES ${man_1} DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR}/man1)

Curious about the need of this patch.
