Nathanael, you know what gcc spits out on ICE's: "If appropriate,
please include the preprocessed source". So please add URL's to
the source you cite: "according to debian-legal". Thanks ;-)

Unfortunately not only the -doc packages are affected, but the
gcc-3.2, gcc-3.3, cpp-3.2, cpp-3.3, g77-3.2, g77-3.3, fastjar,
gij-3.2, gij-3.3, gcj-3.2, gcj-3.3, gpc-2.1-3.3, gpc-2.1-3.3-doc are
affected as well, as their man pages are generated from the texi
sources and under the GFDL.

ohh yes, I love debian-legal ...

PS: gcc -help doesn't seem to be infected, not yet ;-)
