My preference would be to completely replace the back-end with
LLVM. Why LLVM? Well as opposed to GCC it was designed from
the ground up to support many languages.
I heard, llvm was written for C and x86. C++, exceptions and
ARM pushed it beyond its limits and created a lot of kludge and
redesigns.
And so what ? LLVM is more awesome with each version and is
clearly evolving much faster than other compiler. That is a clear
success story.
