Bug#866179: [stretch] old versions of gcc not available

[Vincent McIntyre]

Package: release-notes
Severity: wishlist

Hi

it appears that, in contrast to previous releases, stretch does not
come with the gcc available in the previous release. I think this
should be noted in the release notes along with a pointer to any
discussion about the reason for this.

Can anyone help with the pointer? I am happy to draft a patch.

Kind regards
Vince
