Though I'm not participating in GSoC, I would be glad to get involved in
GCC development.
Could you please give some comments on current status of the following part:
"Before GCC can be modularized properly, it is necessary to make clear
what interfaces and declarations are actually needed in each source
file. This will, no doubt, be a huge job. It is unclear at the moment
whether there are tools available that could help (Dehydra perhaps, or a
dedicated plugin, or Ctags? Or turn this patch into a proper plugin?
Maybe create a symbols database and identify dependencies to break?)."
