That sounds to me like /exactly/ what branches are for. AFAIUI the
branching policy is very liberal and there should be no problem with creating
a branch. Ah, here it is:
Though you will probably get more feedback if you post patches and numbers to
the gcc-patches list instead of "silently" working on a branch. At
least if the changes
are not too big. At some point a branch is surely the way to go.
