After investigating a little more and testing with files removed, I'm
down to one question (though it would still be nice to clarify the
licenses of the other files mentioned): what is the intended license
of the bash manpage at doc/bash.1, if any?

The opening comments only say

I am interested in whether you are okay with users and distributors
using, modifying, and distributing the file, and if so under what
terms.

Thanks for writing the manpage, by the way!  It is generally a
pleasant read and very clear.

Regards,
Jonathan
