So, if various components maintainers (e.g. C and C++, middle-end,

And, of course, everybody can help :-)
If the final goal is to allow GCC components to be implemented in
C++, then I am all in favour of this project. I'm pretty sick of
all this monkeying around we do with macros to make up for the
lack of abstraction.

It might be interesting, sometime in the future, to fork a version
of GCC into a C++ version, just to see what can be done with it.
It might make it easier for someone to write their own front/back
end by using existing classes to fill out most of the standard stuff,
and to build up trees using classes, etc.
