Please note this bug also exist in stable/stretch.  I'm not a BTS
expert, but is it possible to somehow flag a bug as being relevant to
multiple debian releases? If so, please mark this bug as such.  If not,
I'm happy to file a separate bug against stretch.

Right now, the eclipse-titan package in the debian archive for stretch
was built using gcc-6.2.0, but stretch actually has gcc-6.2.1 by now.

So starting with a fresh stretch installation, you will run into this
exact same problem.  Without the gross hack of manually patching the
include file, the eclipse-titan compiler is not usable.

I am not a Debian expert, but I guess you will need to find out how you can
automatically trigger a re-build of eclipse-titan, every time a package
with a new gcc version is pushed into the debian archive.

Probably only part of the solution:  The eclipse-titan package should
depend on the specific gcc-version.  So basically 'control' would list
a "Depends: gcc (= 6.2.0)" line to express this specific dependency
which is currently only in /usr/include/titan/cversion.h, but not in the
package metadata, where (I think) it belongs.

Regards,
        Harald
