The sources are part of GCC. C.f. your spec file were you explicitly lift them
from there.

"He thinks ... should" ...
In other words, _He_ doesn't package it, because _He_ and upstream-GCC doesn't
want to. (And there are good reasons not to do so.)
> Either package it in Fedora Extras, or convince somebody to do so.
Or do not package it at all.
Trying to lift the code from GCC's source-tree and to package it separately to
me is nothing bug silly. Sorry, I am sure you will not like this, but this had
to be said.
