checkinstall attempts to include gcc components

Bug Description

Binary package hint: checkinstall

Checkinstalling some packages (for example ganglia, slurm) attempts to include /bin/gcc or /bin/ld in the produced .deb. It seems that installwatch is picking up gcc components as being accessed when it shouldn't. The 2 line patch listed here:

http://checkinstall.izto.org/cklist/msg00284.html

seems to work without any side-effects.
