Hi Christophe,
I have a follow-up one: I think the same applies to binutils, but I don't think any maintainer / contributor expressed an opinion, and IIUC patch policy for binutils is (lightly) documented at https://sourceware.org/binutils/wiki/HowToContributeMaybe Nick can update it?
Done.
(I don't have such rights)
Would you like them ? It is easy enough to set up. Cheers Nick
