I think scripts isn't the right place because there are tools there which don't get used during the building of vmlinux (e.g., coccinelle, checkpatch). The scripts name also doesn't describe gcc plugins well. Plugins take part in the image building process in a different way than these tools and scripts do. Since there doesn't seen to be a good place for compiler plugins, maybe we should create a new toplevel directory called "build". Compiler plugins and other existing build tools could live there.
