The binary doesn't have to include any text from the manual. Notice that what I proposed places all pieces taken from the manual inside comments. If you want your binary to use pieces from the manual for help strings, then your binary has to read these pieces from auxiliary file which would be (speaking in the terms of GFDL) an opaque copy and would be covered under GFDL.
