The instructions on contributing to GCC, 
<http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html>, do however link to lists.html for 
details of the appropriate lists, and give a lot of other information 
patch submitters will need to know.  (This information about mailing lists 
used to be duplicated in contribute.html and lists.html, but that way it 
got out of sync.)  I'm sure a patch to bugs.html to say "If you wish to 
submit a patch for a bug, see the <a href="contribute.html">instructions 
on contributing to GCC</a>." would be considered.  Likewise I suppose we 
could arrange for the Bugzilla pages for individual bugs to make prominent 
notices about how to contribute patches - the page for entering new bugs 
has a big notice "Before reporting a bug, please read the bug writing 
guidelines, please look at the list of most frequently reported bugs, and 
please search for the bug." so those for individual bugs could have a 
notice pointing patch contributors to contribute.html.
