The cc1plus built for the purposes of gengtype does not need to look at a lot of code, so turning off collection may not be a big problem. We also considered using a retargetable parser like Clang, or even plugins. All these approaches meant keeping GC. Neither of us is very fond of GC, so we did not explore these alternatives very deeply. Diego.
