--- Comment #2 from Gerald Pfeifer <gerald at FreeBSD.org> ---
Piotr, thanks for submitting this upstream, too!

I'm ust afraid you missed Andreas T. both there and here, so let me
include him on this PR.  Andreas is FreeBSD src committer and upstream
maintainer for FreeBSD in GCC, so can approve most of your changes.

The sequence of events how it usually should go:

 1. Upstream HEAD (that will become GCC 11)
 2. lang/gcc11-devel picks that up within days
 3. Backport to upstream GCC 10 branch
 4. lang/gcc10-devel picks that up within days
 5. Backport to lang/gcc10
 6. Obsolete local patches as the next GCC 10 release comes out

(Steps 2 and 3 can take place in parallel.)


Let's try not to skip too many of the steps 2-4 (or 1-4). ;-)

It really is the safer, future proof, and in the end easier way.
