http://gcc.gnu.org/readings.html has 3 links which are helpful for
    frontends. The front-end howto, the COBOL front-end manual, and
    the toy example language. However I understand they are of varying
    degrees of obsolesence.

Most of the experts on this topic frequent the gcc mailing list.
