Thanks Matthias.

Currently perl has a build-depend on a specific version of "gcc", do I
need to change that to "gcc (>= 4:4.1.1-7) | gcc-4.1 (>= 4.1.1-7)" or
does gcc-defaults require a version bump?

An additional issue which occurs to me is that if I revert the change so
that perl.h distributed in the perl package again contains the register
declaration, this may cause problems with building binary modules or
programs which embed perl unless those packages also declare a similar
build-dependency.

Drats.  Pity build-dependencies aren't transitive.

Do you think that it's safe to at least assume that the build daemons
will have the newer g++ installed?
