It's kind of hard to tell really --- there are many patches in our
queue and not nearly enough reviewers. So maybe someone will get to
it in the fullness of time, or maybe it's true that no one cares
about the particular topic. (But bug fixes and performance
improvements are almost always interesting to someone.)

I recommend optimism: as long as *you* still believe that the patch
is worthwhile, keep pushing it forward to the next commitfest.
We used to do that automatically, but we have started asking authors
to do that themselves, as a way of weeding out patches for which
the author has lost interest.
