Because the full patch set has not been reviewed ....  Parts of it was
reviewed back and parts in the last few weeks :).

I was in the process of resubmitting that patch set.  In fact I was
able to commit patches 1, 2 and 4 already.  patch 3 was resubmitted 5
days ago:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-10/msg01855.html

I hope someone will approve it and then I will resubmit the last patch
which adds the variant portion.

The patch set does not apply directly any more as one variable name has changed.

Thanks,
Andrew
