I disagree.  user space migrations should not be blocked by kernel
changes.  We know that the kernel is sensible to compiler changes, so it
probably should build-depend on an explicit GCC version.  And no, we
should not block migrations on build failures, just for this case.  So
the kernel needs to have an explicit switch to a new GCC version once
it's supported by the kernel.

Bug description:
  The recent gcc update in eoan migrated out of proposed despite the
  fact that it was breaking dmks/nvidia users, could we have some sort
  of autopkgtest added to make sure that gcc gets blocked in proposed
  the next time we have a such situation?
