Will it be possible to use old parser also for some time, while new 
parser is stabilizing in mainline?
Purpose:
- To measure both parser's compile time performance based on same gcc 
source base.
- If measurement results says new parser is better or as good as old 
parser than I think, no need to have ability to use old parser. 
Otherwise compile time conscious people may want to continue to use old 
parser while we improve new parser.
