the saa713x maintainer after Gerd is actually Hartmut.

He might not have always the time for it immediately, but should have a
copy of what is going on.

Actually, these problems are within the build system and should not even
come down to a driver maintainer.

The crowd here is used to have some trouble concerning the build, best
was when guys like Trent did watch out for it before we had some impact.

Cheers,
Hermann
