The problem is GCC made these concerns completely irrelevant. You wanted refactoring support for C or C++? Either build it on clang or get screamed at by RMS for leaking GCC internals when text base search and replace was enough for him in the early 80s.
The simple fact is that there is no GNU based alternative to clang/llvm.

Emphasis on “alleged”, since some heavyweights say he was never there to begin with. https://lwn.net/Articles/853230 https://lwn.net/Articles/853230 Somewhere down the thread there are questions about AST, I think.
