Ok,maybe I should have been more explicit about what I meant.
Look here for example:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-10/msg00266.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2007-10/msg00275.html

There you can find a discusson about a problem for threaded programs caused by  
a recently made default optimization of gcc. This problem has been discussed on 
the lkml, because it affects the kernel too. This is a problem more centered on 
the optimization phase,but if the front-end doesn't care about certain 
compilation scenarios,maybe the rest of the compiler doesn't care too.So maybe 
my question hould have been : "Is cfe interested in supporting kernels 
compilation"?
