[Bug other/32213] License for libiberty

[jsm28 at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Comment #2 from jsm28 at gcc dot gnu dot org  2009-03-29 14:35 -------
In addition to the issues listed in that 2003 message, libiberty extracts
documentation from (GPL, LGPL, etc.) source files to go in a GFDL manual
and has no exception text to allow that documentation from GPL files
to be distributed under the GFDL.

Solving that issue (presuming the solution is a GPLv3 exception license
text and the files move to GPLv3 / LGPLv3 + exception) would also facilitate
such documentation extraction in GCC proper where it's felt useful (e.g.
for internals API reference).
