gccgo: A gcc frontend for Go, a new programming language

[Ian Lance Taylor]

For the last year and a half I've been working on a gcc frontend for
Go, a new experimental systems programming language designed by a
small group at Google.  We've just open sourced it.  You can read more
about it at http://golang.org/ .

The gcc frontend is called gccgo.  I've just committed it to
svn://svn/gcc/branches/gccgo.  The frontend is written in, yes, C++.
There are are a relatively small number of changes to the middle-end.

Please take a look if you are interested.
