The Documentation directory is part of the extracted Linux sources. If you're
using a pristine copy from kernel.org, then it just be a directory undernearth
the linux-2.6.1 directory. The Changes log for the 2.6.0 kernel includes
these:
o Gnu C 2.95.3 # gcc --version
o Gnu make 3.78 # make --version
o binutils 2.12 # ld -v
o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version
o module-init-tools 0.9.10 # depmod -V
o e2fsprogs 1.29 # tune2fs
o jfsutils 1.1.3 # fsck.jfs -V
