Ahh,m yes.

It sounds like we might be able to delete the build test entirely if
we just always expect to have a recent enough gcc.

Testing the headers for existence would presumably still be needed,
just to verify "do we have plugin support installed at all".

But I'm not planning on applying this directly - I find the config
overhead to be a bit annoying, but it's not like it is _objectively_
really a problem. More of a personal hangup ;)
