It would be clear, if this were the GNU Free Manpage License. The FSF makes a claim I know I've heard here before: that there is no one-to-one mapping from files to works. They'd presumably consider all the manpages in the csound package to be a single work, and have each refer to a central gfdl(8) page. -Brian -- Brian T.
