Right :). Patch submitters, if you have a patch that has not been
reviewed yet, would you mind sending me a *private* email with
a URL to the patch, please? I will add it to our checklist. We can
try to review it promptly.

Same here. Anything that says C++ usually scares me away. But I'll
start taking the stance that, if no one liked at it for weeks, and
I don't see anything wrong, let's put it in, and see what happens.
I would have prefered we did that at some other time but close to
a release, though...

And let's encourage more people to become maintainers if we think
they are ready.
I've added a new section to the gdb-7.0_release wiki page, that
lists all patches that we know of that we should make every effort
to review before the 7.0 release is made.
