Did apple develop much in GCC other than the Objective-C frontend (which was originally developed by NeXT)?

There was progress, but the development speed wasn't fast enough for a group's liking.

I tested the linking speed and linking is quite fast and does not slow the compilation process by more than a handful of seconds - which does not matter.

At least the linker is free software no matter where it is.
