I like the idea of making the intermediate representations more

output from a module(including a more specific structure to each IR).
This would give a pipeline structure to GCC. I don't know how much of
this can be achieved via GSoc, but I would still like to give it a
try. Any interested mentors? Thanks.
Would it make sense for someone to pick this
https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GimpleFrontEnd
up where it was left off?
Absolutely. Especially since it's a necessary step towards unit testing
of the gimple optimizers.
