I did posted on gcc-patches@ many times a patch providing exactly that
feature, but nobody reviewed it.
Last post of the patch is
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-03/msg00644.html
Given Matthias wish, I dare ping again that patch....
Cheers.

For packages of GCC I would like to see a common location where plugins can be
installed; currently a path to the plugin has to be given on the command line,
which is likely to be different for different installations. What about
-fplugin=<name> (without the .so) meaning to search for the plugin in a default
location like <gcclibdir>/plugins for the plugin? -fplugin=<name>.so could also
be used, but maybe would be ambiguous looking in the current dir, or the plugin dir.
