alpine 3.8 (and 3.7) branch have gcc-6.4 which was released in July 2017. For a C compiler, that is absolutely sufficient. You'll find many other packages in the 3.8 release branch are more up-to-date, this is a bit of an exception.
This isn't Rust. GCC-6.4 will compile literally any C or C++ project you find (that works with any recent version of GCC), including stuff requiring C++-14 and _most_ of C++-17. Hell, GCC-4.9 (from 2014) is sufficient to compile the latest linux kernel, the latest sqlite3, the latest nginx, the latest of any real significant package.
