So I have two questions: why did including this header directly became
necessary (code builds fine with 4.5) and are there any other issues we
package monkeys might run into with a new compiler?
GCC 4.6 changed a lot of compiler warnings to errors, so a lot of code
(especially C++ code) that used to get away with violations like
omitting headers or assigning to un-assignable things will now fail to
build.
