Just to avoid confusion... GCC distributed and maintained by FSF volunteers (aka official GCC) does not have this support. However, this support is available in a development branch used and maintained by Apple. As expected and just like any other vender branch, this development branch is tested and maintained for Apple platforms. If you're a compiler developer OR ready to spend time to add this feature in GCC yourself then take a look at this implementation and make it suitable for official GCC. However, if you're a software developer, looking for a feature in GCC tools you use, then I suggest that you atleast file a bugzilla request (gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla) for this feature. If enough people are interested then one of the regular gcc developer may be motivated to make this feature available in official GCC. - Devang
