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.
What's wrong with piggy-backing on the work of others? It's free software. One of the reasons software is free is so that others can change it and build on it without hassles -- in other words, piggy-backing on the hard work put into the original.
