Bug#775155: Should provide <arch-trplet>-cc alternative

[Elliott Mitchell <ehem+debian@m5p.com>]

Package: src:cross-gcc-defaults
Version: 0.4

The SSIA pretty much.

In addition to providing /usr/bin/<arch-triplet>-gcc, the GCC
cross-compiler packages should be providing a
/usr/bin/<arch-triplet>-cc alternative.  This is similar to a native
compiler's /usr/bin/cc alternative, but for cross-compilers.  I haven't
yet heard plans to get CLANG/LLVM doing cross-compilation, but I imagine
it will happen in the future and better to attack this issue before the
pattern of using <arch-triplet>-gcc becomes entrenched and makes the
transition harder.
