Just be aware of the fact, that on HP-UX and Tru64 (and, may be, some other
systems), the output of -dumpversion is not as "clean" as it is on Linux:

HP-UX
-----
bash-2.03$ gcc -dumpversion
2.9-hppa-991112
bash-2.03$

Tru64
-----
cxxosf.zko.hp.com> gcc -dumpversion
2.9-gnupro-99r1
cxxosf.zko.hp.com>
