No!!!! That gdb-patches database should be deleted. It's dead.
People already have to track:
- gdb@
- gdb-patches@
- gnats@
and that is to complicated for some. At least, by having both patches
and bugs in a single database, we've a one stop-shop. A better change
is to dump gdb-patches@

No worse than having me review them. All that can be done is review
them at a coding / broad architectural level and assume that the
contributor, given that they are using the target, have it working.
Knowing that they run the testsuite also helps.
