gcc-4_3-trunk/gcc/optc-gen.awk and gcc-4_3-trunk/gcc/opth-gen.awk
All contain this credit line:
print "/* This file is auto-generated by opts.sh. */"
Numerous documents and other files all mention opts.sh but I can find no such
file:
gcc-4_2-branch/gcc/ChangeLog-2004: * opts.sh: Generate variable
declarations, handle CL_REPORT.

opts.sh. */"
gcc-4_2-branch/gcc/opth-gen.awk:print "/* This file is auto-generated by
opts.sh. */"
gcc-4_2-branch/gcc/opts-common.c: issue, opts.sh makes "-gen-decls" point,
via the back_chain member,
...
It would be better if each of the "opt?-gen.awk" files credited themselves
instead of a non-existant file. It makes it more difficult to find out how the
files they create were created when you read those files with this erroneous
information.
