A quick grep in the *.texi documents shows that they are not
documented. So your observation is correct: the gcc documentation is
incomplete, and looking at the sources is your only option. To
simplify life for future GCC users: Would you consider contributing
documentation for these macros? If so, send patches to
gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org.
