Have you already submitted your changes for inclusion into the official
GCC sources? Respectively, are you planning to do so? When?

Well, I just checked our ChangeLogs and it seems that you have not
submitted back your changes, which is a real pitty. Perhaps you could
talk your company into submitting your changes for inclusion into our

has some thoughts on such issues.
