The @gol macro appears to have existed as a workaround for a bug in old
versions of makeinfo and/or texinfo.tex, where they would, in some types
of output, fail to emit line breaks in @gccoptlists. After updating
texinfo.tex, I noticed that this behavior appears to no longer be
exhibited, instead, both acted correctly and inserted newlines. The
(groff) manual output also appears unaffected.
gcc/ChangeLog:
* doc/include/texinfo.tex: Update to 2023-01-17.19.
* doc/implement-c.texi: Remove usage of @gol.
* doc/invoke.texi: Ditto.
* doc/sourcebuild.texi: Ditto.
* doc/include/gcc-common.texi: Remove @gol. In new Makeinfo and
texinfo.tex versions, the bug it was working around appears to
be gone.
gcc/fortran/ChangeLog:
* invoke.texi: Remove usages of @gol.
* intrinsic.texi: Ditto.
This is OK, but I'd like to see this patch split into two separate
commits as well -- one for the texinfo.tex import, and one for the @gol
changes.
