Just spun up a different solution in my personal channel, creating a package "gcc-unhidden" which inherits from the hidden gcc package and uses (properties (alist-delete 'hidden? (package-properties gcc))) to expose it. If the standard use-case—what is expected for most uses—doesn't require these libraries, maybe it would be better to create a dedicated package for the edge cases that might need it?
