And what did you test there? As far as I understood the issue, it's not that
Wine won't work at all (at least for most of those gcc versions). Those gcc
version will only emit much more code that modern copy protection schemes
(Safe Disc, Secu Rom) with statistical code analysis will see as possible
attempts to counterfeit them and consequently prevent starting applications
protected by them.

As long as you do not want to run copy protected applications under Wine
most of those gcc versions should just work fine.
