No problem. If you ever feel like testing it you can always create a
Fedora container:
$ docker run --rm -t -i fedora:latest
$ dnf install gcc
$ gcc --version | sed 1q
gcc (GCC) 15.1.1 20250425 (Red Hat 15.1.1-1)
But waiting for those who actually use those compilers to report issues
works just as well. :)

Gnulib's code would have worked for all C++ compilers (within reason)
until a GCC commit 2 months ago [1]. But since very few projects that
use Gnulib also use C++ (gperf, groff, and octave are the only that
come to mind) no one noticed until now.

Bruno answered this (I don't touch the stable branches).
