Ok, I ended up playing around with this a bit more, and it ended up like

  config GCC_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT_BROKEN
        bool
        depends on CC_IS_GCC
        default y if GCC_VERSION < 110500
        ..

with then CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT just having a

        depends on !GCC_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT_BROKEN

in it. That looks fairly legible to me, and seems to work fine.

I left it all credited to you, since you found all the problems and
wrote that big nice commit log. But it means that if I screwed up in
my edits, you get the blame too. So if that happens, just point haters
at this email and say it's all my fault.
