        Note regarding my previous message: I might sound sure of myself,
but I'm not entirely.  I've fired off a message or two which points right
at this issue (Using GPLed source code with a conflicting license, and how
it can be distributed in round-about ways) to gnu@gnu.org.

        So, I could be entirely wrong.  Take advice with a pinch of salt.
