The pure FE interface will probably need to be implemented in each
language front end, yes.  Once we lower into GIMPLE, we should be able
to hand things off to a single middle-end which would generate calls
into our runtime library.

The idea would be for the gomp runtime to be generic enough to be mapped
on various threading back ends.
