I see the opposite.

No, there's been no original [RFA] or [RFA:] messages today to
gcc-patches. Going by the archive, that is. I don't know where
you look; please clarify.
There's been one message marked RFA: that *was* a patch. There
was another, in a thread marked "Re: [RFA/RFT] libffi reorg
(take 3)" (and similar) in response to a patch sent earlier.

What's that supposed to mean? That people like marking their
patches really loud?
Oh well, if you just don't like it, then ignore RFA. If you
think I'm the only one using it as "request for approval", you
won't lose much.
Anyway, why not have bugzilla look at *all messages* to
gcc-patches that don't reference another instead of telling
people how to mark their patches to please bugzilla?
