Ordinarily you have to CC the `-gnats' address to get the message in the PR. Unfortunately sometimes Gnats sends out a message to (eg) gdb-prs@... and then if you reply to all you don't CC gdb-gnats.

Won't you consider submitting a patch yourself?

I've never contributed to a GNU project before though. Could you point me to a "new contributors" faq? Is it reasonable to diff against gdb-5.0 or do I need go to CVS?
