Both a GPL copy and a GFDL copy of the text shared between tm.texi and target.def need to be checked in (hence not just having tm.texi.in but not tm.texi checked in). If existing text that was only in one place (so only under one of GPL and GFDL) is being moved so that there are copies under both licenses, then this involves docstring relicensing review (otherwise, just copying the generated tm.texi without any extra review for that copying is appropriate). -- Joseph S.
