At this point in time I'd tend to think not.
The cgen cvs module currently doesn't compile any code.

Yeah, my wish/plan is to have one copy, in include/cgen.

There's still an issue of having multiple copies of code 
(cgen-ops.h/basic-ops.h declare some functions, and will declare more 
over time, and we'd ideally have only copy).
I don't mind having it all live in libopcodes (at least for now, and 
ports that don't use cgen won't see it) instead of creating libcgen. 
[Adding another library that binutils binaries have to link is 
problematic.  It's doable,  but it's work and I can well imagine folks 
not wanting it.  That's fine.  There's already libopcodes which "works 
for me".]

Thanks for the URL.  No worries, I'll make sure to merge them.
