I have a different fear: that gcc will become increasing irrelevant, as more and more new programmers learn to work on alternative free compilers instead.

In my view, if we can't even get ourselves together to permit something as simple as plugins with an unstable API, then we deserve to lose.
That's precisely my concern. Diego.
