I don't know about Metrowerks, but Symantec has had such a public
interface for quite a while. A friend put a Prolog compiler into their

Announcing Symantec Compiler Developer's Toolkit.

   This toolkit is intended to provide relatively complete documentation on
how to write compilers for the Symantec Project Manager 8.0.  It includes
over 100 pages of written documentation and sourcecode with projects and
makefiles for a do-nothing compiler.

   Anyone interested in receiving this toolkit can do so via anonymous FTP at

ftp://ftp.bedford.symantec.com.

Sincerely,
The Symantec Macintosh Development Tools Group
