you dont need an account to contribute.  anyone can post patches to
the gdb-patches mailing list and get things merged.

once you've shown significant activity, you'd sign a FSF copyright
assignment, get an account, and then get approval access.

but unless i've missed something, you havent posted any patches to gdb
yet.  the process is:
 - post patches
 - become known
 - get account
 - post more patches
 - commit things under approval
not really the other way around
