Sorry, you misunderstood.  The change is on the src side, the patch
must be *sent* to the src side.  The GCC patch list is just not the
right place to post the patch, because the GCC project has nothing to
do with files in the src repository.  It's not even appropriate to
discuss who owns the file on the src side, unless you're discussing it
*on* the src side.

I suggest starting up a discussion on the binutils@sources.redhat.com
mailing list, for starters, for the changes that would happen on the
src side.
