* We could add plugins to the GCC repository for things that are considered
generally useful but we don't want to bloat standard gcc. I am sure the FSF
will be happier if plugins live in the GCC repository and they are assigned to
them than if not.
* A plugin living in the GCC repository will likely have a lower barrier for
acceptance than code added to GCC.
