No, it was a different thread. I had to search my outgoing mail box to
find it. See

I will approve the patch to c-decl.c to remove the
c_promoting_integer_type_p code. I am convinced enough that this is
wrong. This patch needs to be forwarded to the gcc-patches list. If
this causes too much ABI trouble, we may have to revert it.
I will approve the equivalent cp/decl.c patch also, unless a C++ expert
wants to overrule me.
For the convert_to_integer patch, it isn't obvious to me that there is a
problem with the code. This will require more thought than I have time
for at the moment. I am several weeks behind on patch reviews because my
job kept me busier than normal recently. I have several people waiting
for me to follow up on patch reviews, some as long as two or three
weeks, so I think I should catch up on my backlog before accepting
responsibility for more patch reviews.
