Actually, no. Pardon my insistence... ;-)

Testcase:

Boot xubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso (Live CD will do)

apt-get install gcc-4.0
which gcc

...finds none. Same for gcc-3.4 (and probably others I haven't yet
tried).

apt-get install gcc
which gcc

...only now there it is.

So unless one is supposed to install the gcc package in addition to the
specific one of any particular version (which then couldn't exactly be
called intuitive or clearly documented), I'd say we do have a legitimate
report (just for a missing symlink, but then again that's all it ever
claimed).
