I can't say whether or not the members of the above list
like the new facts.

I don't like it. I contributed to a GMGPL project not a pure GPL
project.

If you are one of the authors, and you happen to have a copy of the
software, then I believe it is your right to distribute it under a new
license or under the GMGPL.

One big question though. What is /where can on find the license of
the gcc - GNU Compiler Collection?

http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html

The tarballs are crypto-signed and contain a COPYING file and headers.
If you're still not sure about the license terms, ask the people who
crypto-signed the archive.

Does the gcc have an exception so one can make non-GPL programs with it?

Yes, both in libstdc++ and libgnat.
