I believe gcc should have a hard dependency on libgomp.  Installing the
compiler should bring in all the libraries required to build programs running
with that compiler.

See for example the native package

# rpm -q --requires gcc | grep libgomp
libgomp >= 4.1.2-48.el5

Note that it doesn't require a libgomp.so.1() package, which means that no
executable in the GCC package actually requires libgomp.  It is only present as
a dependency, because it is needed for _users_ of GCC.

Doing things differently in the mingw32 toolchain seems very, very wrong to me.
 I believe WONTFIX is the best solution for this bug if separate -devel
packages are undesired.
