Ah, you're right. It's in a quote further down:

> It was you who told me to abandon libclang and choose GCC instead. And now that I'm working on that, I only get confronted with vague restrictions like "you may only export what you need for completions".

What a mess. Seriously, why not just go with llvm and ship something great? Once RMS comes to his senses (it can take years, and egcs demonstrates that having working code helps), the whole thing can be ported back to GCC.
