Yep, absolutely agreed. That said, I actually did review and approve this specific patch, cf. https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-02/msg01672.html And I am always happy to review (and/or provide some editing after a commit), but outside of news items on the main page which generally should be reviewed by a second pair of eyes than the contributor this is more of a service than a mandate. ;-) Gerald
