The plugin support is very much work in progress.  It could be used for
runtime bounds checking, but I'm sure there would be some difficulties
getting everything to work.  For more information and the status, see
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/plugins .

For runtime bounds checking, have you looked into the -fmudflap option?
