(Minor quibble) As copyright owner of GCC, the FSF is not bound by the
conditions of the licence it grants in the same way as licencees are
bound. So I don't think this provision in itself would mandate that
those who have copyright assignments to the FSF record their changes.

I was hoping nobody would notice that.  ;-)

Actually I think this is wrong, the FSF holds the copyright
by virtue of a copyright assignment which contains the
guarantee that the software will be distributed under the
GPL (at least that's my recollection of the assignment
document).
