IIRC, they'll accept preprocessed compiler input for the specific file;
you don't need to provide a complete source tree.  Per
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/

    Please include all of the following items, the first three of which can be obtained from the output of gcc -v:

    the exact version of GCC;
    the system type;
    the options given when GCC was configured/built;
    the complete command line that triggers the bug;
    the compiler output (error messages, warnings, etc.); and
    the preprocessed file (*.i*) that triggers the bug, generated by adding -save-temps to the complete compilation command, or, in the case of a bug report for the GNAT front end, a complete set of source files (see below).

Obviously, if you can trim the input it's good, but it doesn't
have to be a minimal reproducer.
