We actually tried this and already simplified the header file as much as possible. The header file now only contains preprocessor macros and function declarations, but no definitions, so should be relatively easy to parse. All code-gen itself is handled in CGBuiltin. The main reason we couldn't remove the header file is because of the short-forms/overloaded intrinsics. I wouldn't know of a way to create overloaded intrinsics without having to manually do the usual arithmetic conversions similar to how this is currently done for some overloaded builtins like `SemaBuiltinAtomicOverloaded` in SemaChecking.cpp. I also wonder if this problem isn't better solved using pre-compiled modules at some point? > Please update the documentation comment at the top of Builtins.def . Good spot, fixed it!
