You can't.  The method I was about to start using was to post the
patch to the mailing list, and then use the web send-pr to send
the PR with a URL for the patch in the mailing list archives.

This won't work because they disabled the web send-pr.

I think the reason this was disable is some idiot was posting a
lot of PR's that were not really PR's, and then filling in the
mailing lists as "contact" (or whatever).  I saw a lot of these
right before they disable it.

Probably, the correct thing would be to accept the submission,
and pend it for review, before it became active as a real PR.
This would require that a human look at the pending PRs, and
make a decision.

Instead, what happened was the web submission form was disabled,
letting whoever was trying to poison the ability to report
problems win.

Not very satisfying to me, either, since a lot of people are
"PR-blind" to patches posted to the mailing list.

Maybe you could also ask them to reenable web send-pr, as I did.
