I've heard about this branch, and I was pretty sure that my "work" would not 
remain in the mainline for long, but I think it was a good start for me :-)

Ok, thanks. I plan to try to contribute more in the future, and I have no 
objection with signing a copyright assignment. If I understand 
http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#legal, I could get the form(s) from you, 
right? If so, could you please send them to me?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Simon
