This package is implemented as an additional language frontend for gcc, which
introduces some issues I'd like to raise with the other readers of
fedora-extras-list. In this particular case, the package includes
files/directories as follows:

%{_bindir}/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
%{_bindir}/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-4.0.2
%{_libdir}/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.2/
%{_libexecdir}/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.2/

These could potentially conflict with any other language frontend based on the
same gcc version, which would not be good. I don't think this arrangement
currently clashes with anything in Core or Extras, but the potential is there.

One workaround I could think of would be to include the name of the language or
package in the target designation, e.g. i686-pc-linux-ghdl instead of
i686-pc-linux-gnu), but that doesn't look "right" to me.

Any other suggestions?
