It seems to me that if these types are going to be used by the middle
end, then we might as well define them in the generic part of gcc.
And, more generally, I think it would be great if we could write down
exactly what the middle end expects in terms of defined types, and
anything else like that, to make writing a front end a more
well-defined experience.
