   The argument for a tool like DMS is that the community in general can't   
   afford   
   to build all this standard machinery, and by doing it once that cost can be   
   amortized.   
      
   (One can argue that cost has been amortized by GCC, but if you want to build   
   a general purpose program analysis and transformation tool, GCC isn't the   
   answer by a long shot).
