It says 'unassigned' which means no individual has claimed the bug as
one that they're definitely going to fix themselves. Some people use the
'responsible' field to claim a bug to avoid anyone else duplicating the
effort, but in general people just leave the field set to 'unassigned'
and post a patch to fix the bug when they've got one.

If you want to argue that this is a high-priority to fix for GCC 3.1,
you should write to the main GCC development list and not gcc-help.
Reply to the "GCC 3.1 Release" thread if you can, or make it clear in
your subject line what you want.
