Sure.  In the meantime, people should note that they will be unable to
view the contents of the gcc-g++ package via the packages page.

Additionally, when searching for something like "g++", they should be sure
to quote the '+'s with backslashes ('\'), i.e., search for "g\+\+".  In
general, the expression they're searching for is a full-blown perl RE
(perhaps we should add a note about that to "packages/index.html" -- is
the template somewhere in CVS?).
