But did the code only get assigned by that assignment when it was actually
submitted to the FSF by Apple, rather than simply by being created and
published?
My understanding for GCC was that anything on the 4.0-based branch in the
FSF repository was assigned by virtue of being committed to that
repository, but the 4.2-based sources weren't (hence, in particular,
implementation of blocks for GCC would need either something to be done
about assignment of the 4.2-based code from Apple, or a complete
reimplementation; cf <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2013-11/msg00039.html>) -
and that it was generically the case for such assignments that changes
became assigned at the point where they were submitted by or with the
consent of the previous owner.
