[Qt-creator] Proposal: Increase requirements for compiling Qt Creator to GCC>=5.3

[André Hartmann]

Hi Davide,

 > Wasn't gcc 5.3 already used to build Qt Creator?

That may have been the case for the precompiled version already,
but you *could* compile Creator yourself with older gcc versions.

The current change is about *requiring* gcc 5.3.

Regards,
André
