It's not.  Really, if you do touch core code and do not get a maintainer
respone it surely does not mean you can merge it through your tree.

It usually either means this stuff is so bad that it's not even worth
responding to or that the maintainer and core revierers of the area
are busy.  In this case it's probably a combination of both.
