This defeats the whole point of building against whatever 'build-essential' pulls in for the target Debian release, and it results in several GCC suites getting unnecessarily installed. It would instead be desirable for src:linux to Build-Depends on either the generic 'gcc' or on 'build-essential' for its compiler requirements.

Is there any compelling reason for src:linux to hardcode the GCC
version as an explicit dependency?
