Eh, no.  We need a GWP to approve the final patch, but Caroline can
and should do the merge herself.  The easiest approach is to generate
a patch on an svn checkout of trunk.  Caroline and I discussed this
earlier today.  It goes something like this (on a git client):

$ git checkout -b vtv vtv
$ git merge origin/trunk
... fix merge conflicts ...
$ git commit
$ git diff trunk >patch
... Get rid of all the ChangeLog.vtv and configure diffs ...
... Use git log to find the svn revision REV for the local trunk git tree ...
$ git co svn://gcc.gnu.org/gcc/trunk@REV
$ patch -p1 <patch
$ svn add ...new directories and files...

At the end of this you'll have a checkout of trunk with the vtv
changes in.  You can now test it and send the final patch to the list
for a GWP to review.


Diego.
