Wrong.  It's also true for the glibc as it is in upstream's cvs
repository.  Period.  If you have patches to fix these issues, then you
forgot to publish them.

Wrong.  The glibc, as it is in upstreams's cvs repository, does not work
(for GNU/Hurd) with GCC 4.1.  Period.  If you have patches to fix this
issue, then you forgot to publish them.

Wrong.  Why shouldn't you be allowed to help?  You have only been banned
from the public bug-hurd mailing list, because of your intolerable
behavior.  But -- as you should know -- there are more ways to contribute
to the project.  The Savannah {bug,patch,task} trackers come to mind, for
example.  Apart from that, you can send email directly to the
maintainers.  Etc.
