Hang on a mo', that's our file!

Would it be possible to cc CC Mode (at bug-cc-mode@gnu.org) with things
like this, so that we can keep the definitive copy at sourceforge up to
date?

I only saw this thread this morning when I was garbage collecting my
emacs-devel archive.  emacs-devel is a very busy list, much more so than
bug-cc-mode, and it's easy to miss important stuff there when one is just
scanning it rather than reading it intensely.

As a matter of interest, cc-mode.texi is undergoing substantial revision,
and it is thus likely that patches made to a current version can't be
applied automatically to the HEAD version (though this particular patch
might - I haven't tried it yet).

Thanks in advance!
