This is a questionable change. Ken, do you realize that `gccbug' is almost
never used these days and is in fact scheduled for future removal by
upstream? Sure, it's an ICA difference (albeit only an ASCII one), but
it's harmless and the reason for it is understood. You've now changed the
order of the toolchain packages which is setting a bad precedent IMHO. All
this alphabetical stuff was never meant to upset the toolchain apple cart.
If you really want to get rid of the diff then you'd be better off rm'ing
gccbug altogether.. or even installing mktemp in Ch 5. The point of ICA is
to understand any differences and fix if necessary. Making gratuitous
changes like this just to get cleaner ICA results is very wrong IMHO.

Regards
Greg
