While merging the recent Xtensa changes, I discovered some small doc fixes in my 
source tree.

The index entries for vtable_entry and vtable_inherit are inconsistent from all 
the other directive index entries because they don't include "directive" after 
the directive name.

The Acknowledgements section mostly uses "GAS" to refer to the assembler, but 
there are a few instances of "@command{@value{AS}}".  These look funny when the 
AS variable is redefined to something other than its default value.  (Tensilica 
calls its Xtensa cross assembler "xt-as".)

The patch fixes both of these problems.

OK?

         * doc/as.texinfo (VTableEntry, VTableInherit): Add "directive" to index
         entries.
         (Acknowledgements): Use "GAS" instead of AS variable.

OK thanks.  I don't think anyone would have bitten your head off if
you'd committed them as obvious.
