Pyroh [1] filed a deletion request for gcc-snapshot [2]: The former maintainer stated in the comments that this was being orphaned in favor of gcc-git, which arguably makes this packages existence unneeded. Here (http://gcc.gnu.org/snapshots.html) users are recommended to use VCS as "given snapshot may generate incorrect code or even fail to build." This is obviously the same for VCS packages, but there is no implication of stability with those, while a snapshot might be interpreted that way.
