Probably for high-level optimisations, or just to see if the parser is
good, as I do in my compiler.

But AST is language/compiler specific, I also recommend you to
transform everything to LLVM IR and do your stuff there. The LLVM IR
is more high level and extremely more expressive (types and
everything) than GCC IR, so you probably get everything you want from
there.

That supports HPF!! Yeah!
