This sounds very weird. My opinion - no.
The packaging guide prevents us from using a compiler as a BR, because
it is part of the basic build environment anyway. But using a compiler
as a runtime requirement should be OK. As far as I know, compilers are
not usually in the (automatically generated) runtime dependency list of
a -devel subpackage.
