The libstdc++ maintainers can of course make their own decision here.

But the general guideline for write access to the SVN tree is
successful submission of a couple of patches.  That ensures that the
contributor understands gcc's submission and commit policy to at least
a minimal degree.  Write access is a powerful tool, since we must
essentially trust everybody with write access, so the gcc maintainers
don't normally give it out on spec.
