This may be a dumb question, but is there any reason the C++ parser in llvm/clang can't be used? It is compatible with gcc, and AFAIK it is rather easy to make it spit out an AST in the format you want. The LLVM developers are very open to suggestions, and many people have used LLVM in their own projects. Apparently LLVM ships with OCaml bindings by default, so it may not be too hard to use it.
