i'm afraid that they doesn't have equal complexity. i can read DMD code (ok, even backend, it's hard, but doable), but i cannot read GCC backend code in the same amount of time. and there are alot more things i have to know to understand GDC. i made some trivial fixes in DMD backend, yet i don't even know where to start to understand at least *something* in GCC.
