Sorry this is incorrect information. Internally we use devkits which 
combine a specific gcc version with a specific OS version. Our current 
devkit is using gcc 4.9.2, but the sched_getaffinity code depends on the 
OS header files to support dynamic cpu sets (man CPU_SET). I can't say 
exactly which OS versions support this but Linux distributions post 2010 
should be fine.

So older gcc may be fine, but you need the later OS.
