Chapter 5 of the GCC manual is "C Implementation-defined behavior".
It's mostly empty (just the list of what's supposed to be covered), but
this would be a good place to either put the user-level information or
to link to that information. Section 5.11 covers preprocessing
directives. The first item, corresponding to section 6.4.7 of the
standard, is "How sequences in both forms of header names are mapped to
headers or external source file names".
