The file etc/DISTRIB explains that emacs software is licensed under GPL
and refers to etc/COPYING.
Now that an emacs distribution includes the manual and lisp reference,
I think DISTRIB should mention that the documentation is covered by a
different license, and give a pointer to that license?
I don't think there's a problem here. DISTRIB talks about "GNU Emacs",
not "everything in the distribution with GNU Emacs."
The manuals contain clear license notices.
