It's not a huge surprise though... I've had repeated issues with new major GCC versions - usually if I get a release a few months after they swap major releases then it all works fine, so I assume the first one is usually broken in some odd way. There is a 7-2018 release now though which may help.
Usually I'd recommend just sticking with the GCC version that the provision.sh script tries to install (currently 6-2017-q1) as that's what I build/test with.
