Also, under doc/:

     the appendix entitled “GNU Free Documentation License”.
But I guess that you do indeed see the documentation license on info alive (plus I don't see any copies of any GFDL under licenses).

Finally, according to the alive news, xdgdirs is optional, while the ebuild has it as a harddep.
