I don't think it should matter; I think it ought to just work.  For
example, using an older gcc for the application ought to be fine (though
that said, the testsuite doesn't cover this possibility).

[I'm assuming that the compiler you're using for the application is
sufficiently ABI-compatible with that used to compile libgccjit (e.g.
calling conventions) - you're not attempting to e.g. link code compiled
with Visual C++ against code compiled with gcc or anything like that are
you?]
