Using gcc 4.0 on sarge is a reasonable proposition, but using the new
gcc-defaults package on sarge is *not*; it seems an estimated 10% of the
current unstable archive still doesn't build from source using gcc 4.0, and
the percentage will be higher in sarge.  IMHO, it's pretty pointless to try
to use the BTS to track which packages in stable fail to build with gcc-4.0,
particularly as this will make it impossible to distinguish between grave
bugs in sarge that still need attention, and grave bugs that aren't grave at
all.

Since there's no way to split the severity of a bug across versions, this
would require cloning a new bug at lower severity.  That seems a little
silly just for a non-RC wontfix bug, but the maintainer's MMV.
