It depends on how large these patches are. I would suggest that you post them
in gnu.gcc and if they are moderate in size ( < 30-50 K) you could crosspost
them here. Make sure that followups go to gnu.gcc and not here. If they're
big, I think anonymous FTP / UUCP would be a good idea, and maybe after a
while, when the worst bugs are out, you could mail it to the GNU-project
for them to make it a part of the GNU distribution.
I'm a bit suprised that a GCC port is allready here, since I thought GCC was
based on the AT&T assembler (not MASM) and that, even if adding GNU-assembler,
wouldn't load with the XENIX loader (a object code format mismatch).
If GCC can be made fairly stable on XENIX 386, I'm sure you will get a lot of
friends around, since the compiler supplied by SCO is a real mess.
