I think he means the other gcc-related packages in setup.exe; 
dependencies of test packages aren't tracked because they tend to pull 
in experimental versions of dependencies for non-experimental packages 
you might have installed. A shortcoming of setup.exe.

I don't know which dependencies those might be, though...
