The patches I mentioned have all been checked in, and regeprops.texi is generated with an FDL 1.2 header.   I believe that as of the current state of the CVS tree, all the licenses are consistent and that therefore this bug is fixed.

Except for regexprops.texi, the licenses of all these files have now been clarified (in patches send to -email is unavailable- but not yet committed to CVS).

doc/find.texi doc/getdate.texi doc/perm.texi doc/regexprops.texi are combined into findutils.info. However the different licenses are not compatible:
