So, no offense, but the suggestion here is to make this subversive
(for FSF GCC) plugin part of FSF GCC? What is the benefit of this for
GCC? I don't see any. I just see a plugin trying to piggy-back on the
hard work of GCC front-end developers and negating the efforts of
those working on the middle ends and back ends.
