The terminology convention (as given by Kenner and included in comments in
gcc.texi) is that the noun is "front end" and that "front-end" is an
adjective. The same terminology conventions ought to apply to comments as
in the manual, although I haven't attempted to clean up comments and make
them consistent with the conventions.
I know, and try to follow this rule. However, when converting large
amounts of text to a format suitable for a texinfo manual, it is easy
to miss things.
