I'd suggest applying something similar to 11u. We do need this to run through GHA before being committed.

I'm about to open a PR, which this one can then depend on and retest. It may be contentious though, as I intend to suggest dropping the minor version requirement altogether rather than continually bumping it every time Ubuntu update the gcc package. We did this in 8u some time ago and it's not been an issue since.

Note that this PR will need the same changes we added to the 17u one, as 11u is also still on JTReg 6.
