Will this work for people using a GCC 2.95.x based toolchain?
No, I don't believe so (at least, the 2.95.x toolchain that I have here doesn't like it).
Is it necessary to keep this compatibility? (What is the motivation?).
I see no reason to break compatibility without need. It should be possible to detect the version of GCC at runtime and make appropriate adjustments to the compiler options.
Best regards,
