I was looking at the log for a B2G Device Image build (I think it
was the one for Nexus 5-L) a few days (less than a week) ago, and it
was using gcc 4.8 for the target and gcc 4.6 for the host (assuming
I was reading the logs correctly).

I point this out because:

 (1) the device image build isn't in that try run, and

 (2) it's not clear to me that the compiler version checks check
     both the target and host compiler versions when cross-compiling
