No particular list. The gcc list is probably best. Please also have a
look

http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/fom.cgi?file=12

I think it is unlikely that option 2 will bring you anywhere, so
you'll have to consider option 1 and option 3.

I personally think it would be a bad thing to have such an extension,
and will take no further steps in making that happen. In fact, I will
argue against it should a patch be provided.
