[Halld-offline] gcc 4.9

[Nathan Sparks]

Devtoolset-4 is not yet available for CentOS, but it is available for RedHat.
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Developer_Toolset/4/html-single/4.0_Release_Notes/index.html <https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Developer_Toolset/4/html-single/4.0_Release_Notes/index.html>

Browsing the web, it looks like CentOS folks are working on packaging Devtoolset-4, and it should be available soon (within a month or so).
