I noticed that files in include/{aout,coff,elf,nlm,opcode}/ are still
generally under GPLv2 - or in some cases GPLv1. These files have various
notices identifying them as parts of Binutils, BFD, GAS, GDB, etc.;
whichever component of the toolchain they refer to, I believe they should
be GPLv3.
There are a few files with FSF copyright notices but no license notice,
that should have standard GPLv3 notices added, a few that are already
GPLv3 and so don't need updates, and at least one (coff/sym.h) with a
non-FSF copyright notice that should not be changed.
None of these files are included in the GCC repository so there is no need
to sync updates between repositories.
