I thought I read a while back that since the headers are strictly
derived (by scripts, the part I haven't worked out yet) from the
Atmel-owned XML that there were some ownership issues. Since my
solution here to make things built was to literally straight-copy the
headers from the ASF install on my Windows VM, it's even more dodgy in
that sense.
I've got things working now, just need to get it into a sane set of
patches, and I guess when it comes to those files if Atmel doesn't care,
neither do I ;-)
Code going into binutils and gcc is a different matter as the FSF (owner of
those projects) require a copyright assignment for any non-trivial work
(defined as greater than 10 lines of code).
I'd class these as trivial patches (they're done in a for() loop...) but
they're more than 10 lines. I can do the copyright assignment, or I can
just email you my script and let you take "ownership" of the binutils
and gcc changes if that's more expedient.
