Just to repeat: In case a package requires GCC 6.0 or higher, this breaks.

I ran bulk builds using gcc5 and gcc6 a while back.  The gcc5 build produced something like 600 more successful builds.  So based on the bottom line, gcc5 looks like the better option for now.  I'm sure that will change eventually as upstream code evolves.
