I suppose that the lack of responsiveness may be ultimately due to the fact
that the issue only shows up on some specific systems (that is, those using old
assemblers) which normally the maintainers (in general, not just the library
ones) working on mainline GCC don't develop on and don't assume are the
reference systems on which the next release series will be eventually primarily
installed. Indeed, if you look at gcc-patches it's pretty obvious that the
development of GCC mainline proceeded quite normally, and, at this stage at
least, this is what *really* counts.
