No, I consider it part of the parser. My mental model
of parsing & compiling in the presence of a parse tree
is like this:
[source] -> scanner -> [tokens]
-> parser -> [AST] -> code_generator -> [code]
The fact that there still seems to be another kind of
parse tree in between the scanner and the AST generator
is an oddity which I hope will eventually disappear.

To me, that's an argument in favour of always generating
a .pyc, even for scripts.
