Some packages now require a newer GCC to build, we've got at least

I think it's time we merge at least 4.8 into master.

So far nothing broke on my systems with gcc 4.8.3, and we're way behind
most distributions in this matter.

Anyone against doing this?

I'm not necessarily against it, but the reason why we are still on gcc 4.6 is because nvidia_driver has an issue with the version of xorg in test when compiled with gcc 4.7. Merging devel_xorg_modular would solve the issue. http://www.sourcemage.org/issues/376
