If you have a look into GNU's gperf documentation, they claim gperf
has already successfully been used for Pascal, Modula-3 and even F-77
(urrg). Try looking somewhere in the gnu.* groups to get more infor-
mation about their status. Since the backends of GNU compilers have
been proofed very useful, it's probably worth to wait for the GNU
folks.
