That's now academic as Linus decided on a different fix.

:-)

I based my patch on arch/x86/Makefile:
35:        KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(shell if [ $(call cc-version) -lt 0400 ] ; then \
36:                echo $(call cc-option,-fno-unit-at-a-time); fi ;)

Guess that could be improved to use cc-ifversion then.

And a quick git grep gives a few other potential candidates:
arch/ia64/Makefile:44:ifeq ($(call cc-version),0304)
arch/parisc/Makefile:129:       @if test "$(call cc-version)" -lt "0303"; then \
arch/powerpc/Makefile:80:GCC_BROKEN_VEC := $(shell if [ $(call cc-version) -lt 0400 ] ; then echo "y"; fi)
arch/powerpc/Makefile:219:      @if test "$(call cc-version)" = "0304" ; then \
arch/um/Makefile-i386:38:KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(shell if [ $(call cc-version) -lt 0400 ] ; then \
