I'm on testing as well, but I use dselect to do my upgrades so I don't
know what aptitude will do. And since I already have everything
installed I can't really try it out myself.
I'd suggest that you just go for it, you can always apt-get anything you
want and they will not conflict for apt-get.
I don't think aptitude will do anything anyway, it shouldn't remove gcc
3.3 when installing gcc 4.0
