New GCC ICI v0.9.5 (bug fixes + new examples)

[Taras Glek]

Hi Grigori,
I work for Mozilla and recently we developed a few plugins for gcc and 
improvised a plugin interface to gcc to support it.
So far we have been utilizing the C++ FE, but now I'm moving into 
yanking data out of the middleend. I think we should collaborate on the 
plugin interface and combine our efforts to push this upstream(or at 
least into Linux distributions)

The homepage for my plugin work is:
http://wiki.mozilla.org/Dehydra_GCC

See my blog for more details http://blog.mozilla.com/tglek

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
