There are several issues:: Read carefully http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html
first, take care of the legalese. This may take a lot of time (weeks, perhaps
months)
and also depend upon your employer (and country perhaps). So begin to act
quickly.
then, study the GCC source code base, ask questions on gcc@gcc.gnu.org (or by
IRC, etc...),
search on the web for tutorial and documentation about the internals of GCC
(there are a lot of them)
and begin to propose some patches on gcc-patc...@gcc.gnu.org
(but you need the legal part -copyright assignment to FSF- to be completed).
Have fun.
