Medit package depends nowadays on gcc-objc, which conflicts with gcc. I needed to remove medit before I could run pacman -Syu . After upgrade the problem still exists.

Reason for closing:  Fixed

Looks like the gcc-objc removal from the gcc package is hardcoded to amd64. You can force-overwrite these things for now, but be sure to reinstall gcc-objc when this is fixed for i686, as these files are removed on upgrade to the fixed package.
