No, but it is even less to assume it will re-write itself.

A long time ago "incomplete transitions" was listed as one of the main
issues in the gcc codebase
(ftp://ftp.cygwinports.org/pub/gcc/summit/2003/A%20maintenance%20programmer's%20view%20of%20gcc.pdf)

I don't thing our situation is as bad, but it is getting uncomfortable.

Cheers,
