Make your "hard" an attribute of variables: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Variable-Attributes.html Write a plugin http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Plugins.html or a MELT extension (http://gcc-melt.org/ is a domain specific language to extend GCC) dealing with that attribute. This would be a good way to experiment your idea.
