Sure. Any v3 maintainers mind me committing this?

Thanks, Gerald. I hope the attached file is a suitable replacement.
It's based on the one on ftp.gnu.org but without the "../gcc" relative
URL (which is misleading if seen in the context of gcc/libstdc++/README)
and without the "FSF Staff" signature. If this file's added to the dir
I don't suppose it really matters whether the existing README is left
there or removed.
