Looks like you really worked hard on this, many thanks!

It looks like a good improvement to me, although I do have
a few questions:

I would say something more informative than DOCTODO here.  I hope
this patch will be in GCC 4.2 but DOCTODO doesn't look very friendly
to the users ;-)

Nice.

I actually liked the old way. It tells you explicitly what option
you have to add to enable the intrinsic you're reading about.  With
the new scheme, the user has to go look for the option to enable
the standard he needs to get the intrinsic to work.
If this was discussed before, I'm sorry I missed that.  Otherwise,
I'd like to propose we stick with the "Options" thing...

You can make the diff a tad more readable if you leave out the
whitespace changes, they're obvious anyway.

Do we really need to document Standard operators like EQV and NEQV?
+* @code{NEQV}:          NEQV,      Logical non-equivalence


What is this change for (or rather, why were those @comments there
before your patch)??
