Was this patch sent upstream?

in portage.  resync/remerge if you have -DNDEBUG in your CFLAGS

Nope. I did not know who is in charge for doing so when a bug report has been filed in Gentoo Bugzilla, and wanted to avoid it might be sent twice.

If you like, I will send try to contact upstream and send them the patch.
