Do you have a copyright assignment on file for GCC? For a non-trivial contribution of this size, it's a requirement before the patch can be accepted. Once that is established, your patch would need a changelog entry in the standard format, and you need to have built the compiler both patched and clean and run a full C and C++ testsuite on both to check for regressions. Oh, and sending it to the -patches list is the best way to make clear that it's ready for review, once we've got the rest sorted out. cheers, DaveK
