 Therefore, the "gcc (GCC)" character should be searched to obtain the correct
 character string "gcc_version" value. 
I don't think that's sufficient to catch current kernels.
Here's another data point from a Debian system:
$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 5.9.0-0.bpo.5-amd64 (debian-kernel(a)lists.debian.org) 
(gcc-8 (Debian 8.3.0-6) 8.3.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.31.1) 
#1 SMP Debian 5.9.15-1~bpo10+1 (2020-12-31)
So the below pattern won't match this one either.
Maybe we should give up on extracting the version and simply use the 
full string for diagnostical messages? Like extracting everything from 
"gcc" till the next ","?
Thanks,
Mathias
