Build/Install GCC Compiler for C, C++, Fortran, Go, Ada in Ubuntu Operating System

I need to compare performance of various C,C++, Fortran,Go and ADA compiler. So I need to install or build various version of GCC compilers. Installing from apt is easier but not all versions are available from apt.

First step is to install all prerequisites 

apt install -y build-essential linux-tools-common libapr1-dev
apt install libgmp3-dev apache2-dev libapr1-dev libaprutil1-dev apache2-dev libapr1-dev libaprutil1-dev 
apt install -y gcc make libhts-dev libgl1-mesa-glx libegl1-mesa libxrandr2 libxrandr2 libxss1 libxcursor1 libxcomposite1 libasound2 libxi6 libxtst6 libpcre3-dev flex gnat

Most gcc is in C/C++, so we need to install any gcc compiler

To build Ada compiler (gnat), we need other Ada compiler. Hence we install any gnat version.

Clone gcc github repository. Only need to do once. When building each gcc version, we need only to clone from this local repository.

git clone https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc

Some gcc versions can only be built on a specific Ubuntu version. Here is the summary result of compiling gcc in various Ubuntu versions. Old versions can only be built on Ubuntu 16.04. Modern versions can be built/compiled on Ubuntu 20.04
