When I look at the updated en.wikipedia.org and [[meta:Licensing
update/Implementation]] page I see that site footer only states that the
text is licensed under the "Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike
License".

No mention anymore of the good old GNU/FDL.

Yes, there is the phrase;
"additional terms may apply. See Terms of Use for details."

But is that not a weasley way of saying it is actually dual-licensed and
also GNU/FDL?

That is not very Wikipedia style.
