There is a trivial patch for one .info file which adds all the
FreeBSD-specific options to gcc.1.

There is a trivial patch for bmake glue that installs gcc.1 from
gcc distribution (src/contrib/gcc/doc/gcc.1)
instead of gcc 2.95.x manual (src/contrib/gcc/gcc.1)
that is currently being installed.

Both exist since Oct 2003.
