It would be good to list dicos in the MAINTAINERS file, with you as the
maintainer, where all the "--target..." are listed.  I'm not sure what
the exact triplet(s) would be though.  Can you propose a patch that add
dicos (with you as the maintainer) to that list?

It is a good idea to do some testing of your port whenever a new version
is about to be released (for instance, GDB 17 will branch soon).
Especially since your port works unlike any others, w.r.t. shared
libraries, so it could break and nobody will notice.

There has been no changes related to Dicos for many years, so I'm
actually kind of surprised that the port worked flawlessly for all this
time.  Good news I guess.

Finally, if you have any downstream fixes, I would encourage you to
submit them upstream.  It will show that the port is actively used.
