Hi,
What name should I give the executable for the Mercury front-end?
`cc1mercury'? `mc1'? `gcc_mercury_compile'?
The `toy' example uses `cc1toy', but the Java front-end uses `jc1',
which seems to make more sense (it stands for "java compiler pass 1",
right?).
And should it go in the top-level directory, or in the `mercury'
subdirectory? The toy example puts cc1toy in the `toy' subdirectory,
but all the other front-ends put it in the main gcc directory,
alongside xgcc.
