no worries, I doubt anyone took offense.  we (Gentoo) try to work as closely as
possible with upstream GCC, so usually a patch being on our end only means that
nobody reworked it to be upstreamable.  if in doubt, you can email
toolch...@gentoo.org - we'd be happy to answer.

in this instance, the 'fix' we use is not applicable in the general case, since
it doesn't solve the general problem of building a downgraded gcc, so we never
upstreamed it.

PS: the general issue is reported, marking as dupe

have a lovely day!
