We just had a thread about "Where do I send stuff" on another list. My suggestion based on that conversation is that if you have code, send a mention of it to -Current, perhaps with the patch(es) if it/they are small. In that message you should mention that there are more fixes available in your PR, and mention the number. If you don't get any action there, try -hackers. There are people interested in fixing these problems (and people like me interested in having them fixed) but they don't all hang out in -stable, and PR dealing with is a hit and miss proposition sometimes for non-urgent items.
