Package: src:gcc-4.6
Version: 4.6.0-14
Severity: normal

Hi!

When building a cross compiler, there are two problems:

1. hardcoded use of gcc-4.4 without a declared build-dependency.  This could
be fixed by adding the latter, however I see that it not only builds
correctly with gcc-4.6, but also that gcc-4.6 is now the default for all
architectures.  What about trusting gcc-defaults?  Since upstream tests gcc
on, well, gcc, being good enough for the rest of Debian means it should be
good enough for gcc itself.


2. dh_strip is used both on objects for the build and host arch.  This does
not work.  You'd need to either:
a) call either native or cross strip appropriately
b) build-depend on binutils-multiarch
c) Loic Minier suggested there is some way to force dh_strip to do a),
   although for whatever reason it doesn't work in current unstable
