I have used FreeRTOS with GCC on a LPC2106 (for testing & design) and on a LPC2138. It worked "out of the box" (except that I first fell into the trap of using another "boot.s" file than the one that came with FreeRTOS). I made a few modifications, for improved memory and task tracing, and these modifications were easy to make due to the clear lay-out of the code. The code is documented with Doxygen. This implies that the documentation resides in comments mixed in the source code (very convenient if you want to customize the code, or understand how it works). In addition, if you get Doxygen, you can extract new documentation yourself (e.g. in RTF format, to print it with Microsoft Word or OpenOffice). All in all, there is much to like in FreeRTOS.
