Me?  I just use gcc-2.95.3, and I haven't had any trouble.  AFAICT I
haven't missed any patches.  A sig11 in gcc is either a compiler bug or
a hardware problem (building wine is about the toughest stress-test for
your hardware there is, and can find little intermittent problems
nothing else will notice).  Some versions of gcc-2.96 including ones
RedHat shipped did have bugs that Wine tends to provoke.
I don't see that shlwapi/ordinal.o (where wineinstall fell down on
you) has been touched since March 29, so maybe I did miss a patch.

You might find this interesting:

If it is still there, it is about gcc and signal 11.
