Before jumping into this, I have a small set of patches whose net
effect is to make it possible to consider merging cc1 and cc1obj
into a single executable, where the ObjC extensions are enabled
dynamically.  Instead of sharing code piecemeal, I'd like us to
consider first whether to go in the direction of merging, and if
so, to come up with patches that will take us in that direction.
