Pointing out one small facet of compliance is irrelevant, there are
*additional* requirements which are not being met.

You are also required to explain IN PROSE what you are doing and WHY.
You are also supposed to reduce your patch to an INDIVIDUAL CHANGE.

This is getting exasperating, see:
http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#patches

Read the last section titled "Submitting patches" and keep rereading
it until you understand those code drops are not in harmony with the
GCC patch policy.  Seriously.  Read it.

Do you now see a difference between the Ada code drops and my counter
example patch posting from rth?  (If not, go back and reread.)  Note
again rth needs no approval to commit, so we're not talking about
commit approval review.

He simply follows the patch rules like everybody else, because the
extra detail he provides and the discrete patch he created has value
above the particular bugfix he installed and we as a community have
decided years ago everyone must do this.  ACT included.  Period.
