Patches should be posted to gcc-patc...@gcc.gnu.org - for large drop-ins (sub-)tarballs are prefered. I suppose one way would be to merge GDC to a branch in the GCC SVN repository first. Note that gcc-patches has a size limit (not sure how large it was though), hosting files somewhere and providing links would be another way of providing them.
