The main reason is it's really simple to add something to it, without
having the hassle of re-creating the hook.  Since there's no
bottleneck since it's only run once, I reckoned it was worth it.
Further, it looked like further cleaning up the C front-end
initialization would provide language-specific code for such places.
At present various code scattered randomly around makes initialization
decisions based on flags.

So OK to keep it?  When I've finished, if it remains trivial, I can
remove it if you like.
