GCC - Consistency in Dependencies list

Description

Appendix C says that GCC depends on "GMP (Chapter 6)" and similarly for "MPFR (Chapter 6)" and "M4 (Chapter 5)". I believe the additional "Chapter 5/6" is unnecessary and is inconsistent with the rest of that page, as there are plenty of other packages that have slightly different dependencies in both chapters but are not noted as such in the Appendix. For example, Bash is built with external Readline only in Chapter 6, some Coreutils programs link to GMP only in Chapter 6...but none of these other "only in Chapter 6" details are mentioned in the dependency list.
