The Modula-2 compiler has been publically available for over three years
now, sadly the back end is not based on gcc though. The Modula-2 compiler,
ismene simulator (abstract machine) is all GPL'd. The compiler generates
ismene code, and i*86 code with pentium optimizations.
It seems to me that the right thing to do is to convert this Modula-2
compiler into a GCC front end. Would you be interested in working on
that--or at least, would you cooperate with doing it that way?
