I would just like to say that I think this is a fantastic patch that will help open GCC to many more use cases. The fact that plugins don't work on Windows has been a sore spot, IMO. I for one am very happy that this make gdb's libcc1 plugin a viable option for Windows. Puts us one step closer to the long term plan of making GDB always use GCC for C/C++ expression parsing/evaluation. Yay. :-) Thanks, Pedro Alves
