Your prochronistic expression is why front ends is developed.
The purpose of the GCC engine is to make anachronistic futuristic code
executable by means of a front-end, not to implement every star-trek
expression.
Why having this pointless conversation, the Titanic has left the port.

The heart of GCC should remain pure C as far as possible, for the very
same reason the Linux kernel is only in C. Deviate from this, and in a
few years we will end up with Java as the programming language of GCC.
It is the duty of the steering community and our leaders in GCC to be
very conservati
Please don't change the lang_hooks into virtual methods. Speaking from a
plugin development viewpoint, C hooks are very easy to override
individually, without having to change the entire object or create a new

Hi Avi, welcome to GCC development!
As initial projects, I consider
