* doc/extend.texi (PowerPC AltiVec Built-in Functions): Rename to...
(PowerPC AltiVec/VSX Built-in Functions): ... this. Move some material
to new subsubsections "PowerPC AltiVec Built-in Functions on ISA 2.06"
and "PowerPC AltiVec Built-in Functions on ISA 2.07".
(I.e., mention old name as well as new, and use imperative instead of

Looks fine otherwise. Okay for trunk. Thanks!
