Bug#678138: Please remove versioned build-dep on gcc

[Riku Voipio]

Package: perl
Version: 5.14.2-12
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Since even oldstable shipped with gcc 4.3 as default gcc, versioned
build-dep on gcc is quite unneccesary. A working compiler is already
pulled in by build-essential. The current versioned build-dep on gcc
is inconvinience if you want to try building with something else than
gcc.

While at it, also remove versioned build-dep on cpio, as cpio 2.6-5 was 
now 7 years ago..
