Well, I don't like the latter one (though from the end user point
of view, this would be the most transparent one). I don't see
anything really bad with the former one (adding a gcc (= ...)
dependency to dragonegg-4.6, based on the build-time gcc version),
possibly except that it would add a dependency that isn't really
necessary (but conversely, I don't see any reason of installing
dragonegg-4.6 without gcc-4.6).
