<p>Front ends may wish to keep some state associated with various GENERIC
trees while parsing.  To support this, trees provide a set of flags
that may be used by the front end.  They are accessed using
<code>TREE_LANG_FLAG_n</code> where &lsquo;<samp>n</samp>&rsquo; is currently 0 through 6.
</p>
<p>If necessary, a front end can use some language-dependent tree
codes in its GENERIC representation, so long as it provides a
hook for converting them to GIMPLE and doesn&rsquo;t expect them to
work with any (hypothetical) optimizers that run before the
conversion to GIMPLE. The intermediate representation used while
parsing C and C++ looks very little like GENERIC, but the C and
C++ gimplifier hooks are perfectly happy to take it as input and
spit out GIMPLE.
