Dear Maintainer,

mksquashfs does require libgcc-s1 for normal functionality.  If you
coerce a system into not having libgcc-s1, which admittedly would be
pretty broken for probably many reasons, then mksquashfs will fail like
follows:

$ mkdir a
$ touch a/b.txt
$ mksquashfs a a.squashfs
...
libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work
Aborted (core dumped) mksquashfs a a.squashfs
