Oops, I forgot, we can use documentation from

Why do you think that? It appears to me that it was under

which is a copyleft (with invariant sections) that is neither GPL nor
GFDL, and so incompatible with both.

The info files indeed were only put under RCS/CVS control in 1998, so I had to dig in release tarballs. Looking at gcc 1.21, I've found that the gcc info files were already under this license before gcc.info was included.

However, I found another FSF source for this documentation under GPLv2+
licensing: In gcc-3.0/gcc/config/d30v/d30v.h

/* A C statement to output something to the assembler file to handle a `#ident'
directive containing the text STRING. If this macro is not defined, nothing
is output for a `#ident' directive.


   Defined in svr4.h.  */
/* #define ASM_OUTPUT_IDENT(STREAM, STRING) */


For GFDL, we can use svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk/gcc/tm.texi@41700 or later as source.
