You should ping it if it's fallen through the cracks, see "Pinging patches" at https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html We're currently in stage 4 (see <https://gcc.gnu.org/develop.html>) which means only changes that fix regressions should be made. Your patch doesn't include a test or changelog entry or details on how it was tested (see <https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#patches>) so it's possible that even if people have looked at it, they've decided not to spend time on it right now. Please do persist, your patch is definitely welcome, it's just that it might have to wait until after GCC 10.1 is released to commit it. Alternatively, if it's fixing a regression (i.e. a bug that wasn't present in older releases) then please report it t bugzilla with a testcase showing the bug, and that will make the patch eligible to be committed now.
