Depends on the bug.  It's necessary to send enough info for someone
else to reproduce the bug.

First check the file sim/MAINTAINERS and make sure you're sending
to the specific maintainer as well as gdb-patches@.

Post.  Wait a week, then send it again with a note indicating that it's
a repost, with the dates of the previous post.  Wait another week, do it
again (with all the previous dates).  Wait another week, do it again.
Wait another week, do it again.  Wait another week, do it again.

After a month of this, start a separate thread asking for an additional
maintainer for the area that you're patching.

The longest I've had to wait this year has been 125 days.
