I think I've expressed that reasonably well, with help from Jason Merill and Toon Moene. I gave examples involving both the internals manuals (e.g., target hooks) and the user manual (e.g., command-line options). I've not raised any of the Debian issues with RMS and don't intend to do so; I will not convince the FSF by making this into an argument about whether the GFDL is a good license. I'm trying to focus on use of the GPL'd code in GFDL manuals and vice versa, particularly in the context of GCC's manuals, as a way of reducing developer effort and improving the documentation.
