 Description   

In the 3.4 branch, in docs/building.md the instructions state that:

To build MongoDB, you will need:
 
* A modern C++ compiler. One of the following is required.
    * GCC 4.8.2 or newer
    * Clang 3.4 (or Apple XCode 5.1.1 Clang) or newer
    * Visual Studio 2013 Update 2 or newer

which is out of date since according to the SConscript:

compiler_minimum_string = "GCC 5.3.0"

is required.
