Make sure your modifications are consistent with the Emacs build
procedure.  The feature you are working on should be optional, invoked
by a configure-time option, say, --with-native-codegen, and any
system-dependent issues should generally be resolved by configure-time
tests.  See configure.ac for how this is done for other features.

Once this is done (perhaps it already is, I don't know), create a
username on Savannah and request there to become a member of the Emacs
project.  That will give you write access to the Emacs repository, and
you will be able to push a branch with your code.  (Be sure to read
CONTRIBUTE for some of our coding and maintenance conventions first,
and if you are unsure how exactly to go about pushing a branch and how
to call it, ask here.)
