It could be the contribution process for gcc is an obstacle. I don't get involved with those communities enough to know how well they do or don't play with upstream. In no way would I want to create extra unnecessary work for you, but if you really care maybe ping them to see if anyone could help give a hand. They may dream of a pure clang/llvm based toolchain, but I doubt that it's a reality or even close yet.
