2.6 as such covers the range of years - look at the release dates from
2.6.0 and 2.6.39.

And requirements are usually the minimum (here: oldest) version.
All remotely currently deployed gcc's (including from - but not limited
to - Debian/stable over RedHat-Enterprise-6 to SUSE/Novell with and
without updates) up to gcc-4.7.2 (most recent stable) should actually
work.

that is saying the gcc4.7 can compile linux kernel 2.6.0-2.6.39  ?

Short answer: Probably - it is worth a try.

Long answer: First, I would try the gcc from your distribution - it it
works, be done with it.
Than I would try a somewhat recent one - either a prepackaged one (beu I
do not know if such actually exist somewhere) or a self-`make
bootstrap`ped one (which is IMHO easy enough).

Recent ones should understand/compile also 10 years old source ....

Why not use a buildroot  based tool chains or get an old toolchain and use

it as cross compiler. That should work for the most part.
Though it uses uclibc, you can replace it with normal libc.
