Yes it is.

That said, 8.x is also quite old in 2024 and perhaps newer major releases have been better at catching regressions?. @tstellar Is there anything a distribution can help to catch such regressions early?

FYI GCC 8.3 is what Debian Buster is using. It's in LTS support so is only seeing security related updates, hence why it is not using GCC 8.4.
