Are the 3.9 kernels compiled with gcc-4.8.x ?

I've been unable to produce Linux 3.8 and 3.9 kernels with gcc 4.8.0, but
the same kernels build and boot when compiled with gcc 4.7.2.

There's an open bug (I don't know if the specifics are the same) here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.8/+bug/1178847

Once I have finished building gcc 4.8.1 I will try with Linux 3.9.6. The
config on my Trimslice has 'earlyprintk', so I will get a trace (I don't
think this option exists for the Kirkwood platform config).
