I can't speak to Trever's case, but I can say that it's pretty
irritating to need debuginfo for every compiler in gcc when all I really
need is debuginfo for libgcc:

atropine:~% stat -c %s /usr/lib/debug/lib/libgcc_s-*debug
327080
atropine:~% rpm -qf --qf="%{size} %{name}\n" /usr/lib/debug/lib/libgcc_s*debug
329486271 gcc-debuginfo

So subpackaged debuginfo would actually be pretty nice.  gcc is
admittedly something of an outlier here, I admit; I don't think most
packages need subpackaged debuginfo, but the ones that do...
