By default it will indeed be built against gcc-5. But it may be possible
to force building against gcc-6 using the right build dependencies (I
don't know if a B-D is enough, or if you also need to tweak things like
setting CC=gcc-6).
Until gcc-defaults is changed to point to gcc-6, you would need to build
with CC=gcc-6 CXX=g++-6 F77=gfortran-6.
The upstream hg repo now builds against HDF5 1.10, I have successfully
built it against both gcc-6/unstable and hdf5/experimental.
FTR, building against GCC 6 is expected to work with rev aab79a1885cc or
later, and against HDF5 1.10 with rev 5c949eecb6dd or later.
