By far, by far, by far! I can't repeat it enough :) glibc/gobject in cc1, *shudder*. I think a clean C only API would be the best, and if only because a multitude of wrapper generators exist that work with that. If you do away with the strange Gcc prefix and the 'I' suffix (Interface?) and use some common abbreviations (cfgblock -> bb, cfgedge -> edge, cgraph -> cg) it wouldn't be even too unwieldy.
