Why don't we just keep utopic on g++-4.8 until 4.9 is no longer
experimental?

If we rebuild everything for 4.9 while it's still "experimental" it may
well change again, requiring more rebuilds.

Bug description:
  The location-service 0.0.3+14.10.20140512-0ubuntu1 package in utopic,
  when rebuilt against libdbus-cpp3 3.0.0+14.10.20140604-0ubuntu1 (built
  with gcc-4.8) and with current gcc-defaults (which makes g++-4.9 the
  default), fails the package build in its test suite.

  This test suite does *not* fail if either dbus-cpp is rebuilt with
  g++-4.9, or if location-service is built with g++-4.8.

  This implies a binary compatibility problem for C++ libraries in g++
  4.9, which is critical to resolve.
