This is not entirely true. GCC and related projects apply a pretty 
complex peer review process, with defined roles and privileges. (Cf. the 
file MAINTAINERS in GCC's sourcetree for details).

Somewhat over-simplified the process condenses into "All proposed 
changes must be peer-reviewed by somebody who is formally in charge of a 
component" to be changed. Exceptions apply for "obvious changes".
