One thing at a time. Finally separating FE ASTs from the ME will give us some of the modularity aspects we are looking for. Similar work would be beneficial on the FE side, as well. Particularly those using 'tree'. Front ends using their own data structures for ASTs will only need to worry about emitting GIMPLE. Front ends have their own share of issues. If we can at least isolate them to the particular FE, we will have gained something. I also believe that g++ needs a lot of similar work. But, again, one thing at a time. Diego.
