Your understanding is correct.  GCC never accepts patches for a
specific version / release -- even if it is the current release.
Patches for new features or support must be contributed to the current
development version.

Can't the patches be put on a branch on sourceware.org after thepaperwork has been done, just to save them for posterity?


Thanks,
Florian
