Hey Mark. Sorry, I was just pointed at this thread.

Is there a separate issue for libstdc++ doxygen? This situation is
subtly different from the one outlined above: it is the application of
a GPL'd tool over GPL'd sources, which the FSF + Red Hat legal have
both told me for years results in GPL'd docs (and is clearly noted as
such in the libstdc++ manual under Licensing.)  I consider this sane,
actually, and would be most unhappily surprised if the act of generating
the HTML changed the license to GFDL.

It would be my preference to keep this, and then have Debian/Eclipse
use dual GPL/GFDL or GFDL exclusive docs for specified releases of GCC,
ie

gcc-4.5.0-manual.gfdl.html.tar.bz2

etc.

Anyway. Not trying to be controversial here, just trying to make
existing (and hoped-for) usage clear.
