We still have not received copyright assignment paperwork from Brian, so we are
not able to accept the patch unfortunately.

What paperwork still needs to be done for this (9 line) patch?  The FSF should
have my personal copyright assignment, but I could not get one from my employer
when I wrote the patch, Stanford University (according to Stanford's policies
they would not claim copyright on this patch).  I now work for Mozilla, which I
think has a company wide copyright assignment.

The last time I tried to add this hook
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-04/msg00780.html), the copyright issue
seemed OK but the patch was blocked on account of adding a function call to
every finish_decl.  That issue has since been fixed by making
invoke_plugin_callbacks a static inline function.

this feature seems to have been implemented already in gcc 4.7.x, can it be
backported to 4.5.x and 4.6.x perhaps? it would make life easier for plugin
writers who would like to provide the same features for all the plugin capable
gcc series.

I would like to see that happen, too. E.g. gcc-lua-cdecl and Gentoo's
hardened-sources would benefit from this.
