FS#1029 - Fix list of supported build utilities
User who did this - Christoph Grüninger (gruenich)

----------
Please enter the compiler and build tools we have to / want to support. In other words, what kind of rotten compiler are still used on multi-million-dollar machines?

I think it is out of question to support gcc 4.3 to 4.6. GCC 4.3.6 was released June 27, 2011.
GCC 4.2.4 is three years older, from May 19, 2008. Does anyone (has to) use it or even older versions?
I'll test the upcoming release candidates with GCC 4.7 and propose to officially support it.

What about ICC? Is someone using or at least testing it?

Should we add experimental Clang support?

What about exotic compilers from Jugene and other super computers? We should mention them when someone got Dune working with them.
