Ehm... I'm not sure that's reasonable because, 

1. I might be mistaken, but LLVM uses gcc state from before merge of the 
tree-ssa branch, which has considerably changed internal representation
2. There's http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/ already. I don't know how 
good it is, but improving it is not something LLVM folks can do
