[...] Even entire sections that may not be deleted or changed are

one). [...]
That's from the "Free Software Needs Free Documentation" section of the
GNU gdb info page, and would seem to contradict what you're saying.

Incidentially, the "Free Software Needs Free Documentation" section
contains a statement about the copyright status of perl's documentation
that is incorrect on all Debian systems. And yet we cannot modify that
statement to make it match reality or give it its proper historical
context. Nice example of how invariant documentation sections will
invariably become out of date and useless.
