I mean maybe, sure? I don't think that's their end goal, as their main purpose is to have a gcc version for gcc folks, whether it's faster or slower than llvm isn't a goal though. I think first goal is to get it done and stable and forces in place to keep up with the ever updating Rust spec(s). It would also allow for a much wider number of platforms as gcc compiler is much higher coverage of platforms especially legacy ones.
