As I understand it, functions should be commented in the source
files too. (Cf. http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards_24.html#SEC24)
When I'm working on gdb, I find it more convenient to go to the
location of the function declaration / definition and read the
associated comment. I do look at the texinfo document too, but only
as a last resort. (I trust it less, plus I find that the markup gets
in the way of easy comprehension.)
