Yes. I would use this library. Though, personally, I would like a greater scope of what it does.
The details of other things I would like to see from this library or a companion library are here:
This line particularly inspires me:
* Is capable of parsing C++ code and re-generating an instrumented version of that
The idea of automated instrumentation of code is an interesting one, and is part of a more general problem that I am currently working on: C++ rewriting. I have started work on a C++ pretty-printer, which rips C++ code into an XML format and builds the XML back up as either HTML or C++. We could quite easily introduce new features such as profiling into the code. The only caveat is that I am using my own parsing library YARD, as opposed to Spirit. Stay tuned for progress.
