Who are those relevant maintainers? Since Intel BID patches only
affects DFP intrinsics, which is only supported on Linux/PPC,
Linux/ia32 and Linux/x86-64 while Linux/PPC uses DPD encoding, not
BID encoding, I assume the relevant maintainers are maintainers for
DFP, libgcc and x86 backend.
BTW, an x86 DFP configure bug was reported 3 months ago. But it still
hasn't benen fixed. I opened a DFP bug report:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32351
with a patch. I hope it will be fixed before gcc 4.3 is released :-).
Thanks.
