The gcc info docs do have some detail on things like using __attribute__ to get printf-style format checking. A document that cross-references to these would certainly be useful - a top-level list of GNU extensions to ANSI C. As for language documentation - I guess even a list of URLs to C language documents on the web would be useful (@uref in texinfo). I was initially skeptical, but I see this could be useful now.
