I'm not sure what *the* Public Domain Notice is, but I don't know of any
public domain "licence" or declaration which isn't compatible with the
GNU GPL.  The FSF seems to agree:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#PublicDomain

If you provide a patch with a disclaimer that you are putting the patch
in the public domain, I would expect Corinna/cgf/Red Hat would be able
to incorporate it into the project.  They can then distribute it under
the GPL without you needing to do any of the copyright assignment or
distributing anything under the GPL yourself.
