problem is the size of the source.  this would be a massive package.
for those not interested in c++, this size might be a real hindrance,
particularly on systems with limited space.

although, perhaps one approach would be to have two gcc packages, one
with libg++ and one without.  the way libg++ is distributed, seems
like this would be rather easy to facilitate.  the configure step
could apply to both.  with libg++, it almost looks like this might be
an eventual goal.  could this be the case?
