A few gccgo issues have already been reported and fixed:

While performing these tests, I ran into the problem that several Debian Go
packages that I tried to build with gccgo instead of golang ran into BD-Uninstallable
issues since the build dependencies still had a hard dependency on golang-go.
For example, when switching docker.io over from "golang-any" to "gccgo-go",
sbuild would fail to install the build dependencies.
So, when fixing the build dependencies, could you also make sure that these
transitive dependencies on golang-go are going away as well?
Ideally, it should be possible to just switch over golang-any from golang-go
to gccgo-go for a given architecture and then rebuild all Debian Go packages
with gccgo. This way, I would be able to perform a lot of build logs for
bug reports real quick.
Thanks,
Adrian
