Except that Jim Wilson has noted
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-07/msg01187.html> that, fastjar
not being part of GCC, GCC assignments don't apply to fastjar.

This does mean that the fastjar manual is actually copyright Matthias 
Klose and so he's free to remove the Invariant Section and Cover Texts 
from that manual.
