No documentation for the C compiler (not even a documentation of the
options) will be neither fun for the users of Debian nor for the Debian
maintainers - but it's the future of Debian...
The Debian Social Contract says:

Seriously:
There might be real problems with non-distributable firmware, but the
known extremist position of Debian on such issues produces negative
emotions if something like this comes from Debian.
