Bug#960214: gcc-9 breaks libalien-wxwidgets-perl autopkgtest: Can't exec "gcc": No such file or directory

Dear maintainer(s),

[This looks very similar to bug #960212 which will be a duplicate if
really gcc-9 is at fault here.]

With a recent upload of gcc-9 the autopkgtest of libalien-wxwidgets-perl
fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages
of gcc-9 from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from
testing. In tabular form:

                        pass            fail
gcc-9                   from testing    9.3.0-12
libalien-wxwidgets-perl from testing    0.69+dfsg-2
all others              from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of gcc-9 to testing
[1]. Due to the nature of this issue, I filed this bug report against
both packages. Can you please investigate the situation and reassign the
bug to the right package?
