Make sure your modifications are consistent with the Emacs build procedure. The feature you are working on should be optional, invoked by a configure-time option, say, --with-native-codegen, and any system-dependent issues should generally be resolved by configure-time tests. See configure.ac for how this is done for other features. Once this is done (perhaps it already is, I don't know), create a username on Savannah and request there to become a member of the Emacs project. That will give you write access to the Emacs repository, and you will be able to push a branch with your code. (Be sure to read CONTRIBUTE for some of our coding and maintenance conventions first, and if you are unsure how exactly to go about pushing a branch and how to call it, ask here.) TIA
