as maintainer of the port you do not need anyone else's approval.

That said, I am always happy to provide a second pair of eyes, so
here are some comments:

Should that be "addresses below ..." or something like that, since

Is a "to" missing here?

"command-line options"


Does this really apply to GCC 5, or GCC 6 and the (new) gcc-6/changes.html?
