My recollection is that we hoped to do that after GCC 5 stage 1 closed (to avoid breaking people's development branchs), and I think I got distracted by other things (probably the jit). Sorry. I'm working on a big revamp of diagnostics (underlined ranges, fixit hints, etc) that I hope to get in for GCC 6 stage 1 and am trying to focus on that right now. If you think it's still worth doing the gimple -> gimple * conversion (presumably for immediately after close of stage 1), I can try out my scripts then. [snip discussion of Trevor's patches] Dave
