as far as i understand the intentions of the FSDG, both of those
statements are correct; yet there is no conflict - the GFDL may be in
conflict with the notion of "free culture"; but the FSDG does not
require the GNU manuals (nor any documentation) to be present - the GFDL
only requires that *if* the manuals are distributed, then the invariant
sections may not be modified
free culture is optional and orthogonal to free software and the FSDG
makes no prescriptions regarding it other than that everything must be
freely distributable under some license that the FSF deems as
appropriate for that class of data
