I agree on adding the comment about nonce in those copied sections.
The reason for copying is because the original section 1.3 in RFC4306
was split 3 ways in RFC5996.

This was propsed for the RFC5996 already (by me :-) and there was
ticket #34 opened for it and the change was not done as it was
considered important to keep it there:

My original email opening the issue:

http://www6.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg02953.html

ticket opened by it

http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/ipsecme/trac/ticket/34

and more of my comments to the issue:

http://www6.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipsec/current/msg03155.html

and I think this caused we to add definition of Message ID in the
beginning of section 1.2.

Changed:

        <t>The responder replies (using the same Message ID to
        respond) with the accepted offer in an SA payload, and a
        Diffie-Hellman value in the KEr payload if KEi was included in
        the request and the selected cryptographic suite includes that
        group.</t>

...

        <t>The responder replies (using the same Message ID to
        respond) with the accepted offer in an SA payload, and a
        Diffie-Hellman value in the KEr payload if the selected
        cryptographic suite includes that group. A new responder SPI
        is supplied in the SPI field of the SA payload.</t>

...

        <t>The responder replies (using the same Message ID to
        respond) with the accepted offer in an SA payload, and a
        Diffie-Hellman value in the KEr payload if KEi was included in
        the request and the selected cryptographic suite includes that
        group.</t>


To:

        <t>The responder replies (using the same Message ID to
        respond) with the accepted offer in an SA payload, nonce in
        the Nr payload, and a Diffie-Hellman value in the KEr payload
        if KEi was included in the request and the selected
        cryptographic suite includes that group.</t>
