- live patching support
- shell completion help
- generally better diagnostic output (less verbose/more useful)
- diagnostics and optimisation choices can be emitted in json
- asan memory usage reduction
- many general, and specific to switch, inter-procedure,
profile and link-time optimisations. from the release notes:
"Overall compile time of Firefox 66 and LibreOffice 6.2.3 on
an 8-core machine was reduced by about 5% compared to GCC 8.3"
- OpenMP 5.0 support
- better spell-guesser
- partial experimental support for c2x and c++2a
- c++17 is no longer experimental
- arm AAPCS GCC 6-8 structure passing bug fixed, may cause
incompatibility (restored compat with GCC 5 and earlier.)
- openrisc support

the main visible changes appear to be:

- The default mode for C++ is now -std=gnu++14 instead of -std=gnu++98.
- The C and C++ compilers now support attributes on enumerators.
- Diagnostics can now contain "fix-it hints"
- more warnings (some added to -Wall)

http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html

(note that GCC 5.x is a release stream like GCC 4.9.x, 4.8.x, etc.)


the main issues we will have are:

The default mode for C is now -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu89.

ARM:
The deprecated option -mwords-little-endian has been removed.
The options -mapcs, -mapcs-frame, -mtpcs-frame and -mtpcs-leaf-frame
which are only applicable to the old ABI have been deprecated.

MIPS:
The o32 ABI has been modified and extended. The o32 64-bit
floating-point register support is now obsolete and has been removed.
It has been replaced by three ABI extensions FPXX, FP64A, and FP64.
The meaning of the -mfp64 command-line option has changed. It is now
used to enable the FP64A and FP64 ABI extensions.
