This might sound like a wierd suggestion. The stanford University has
a compiler group which wrote a compiler sytem called SUIF. One of the
objective of this system is to provide the user a way to optimize code
( C or Fortran). The system has a kernel which stores the program's
intermediate rep. & has C++ interface functions to manipulate the data
in the kernel.


But you have to look for some way to convert C++ to C, which can be
passed to the SUIF system.
