Can't Lennart relicense it? I think he works for Red Hat as well, doesn't he? > I am not a lawyer, is the license in any conflict with BSD? Neither am I and I don't know how many people on this list are. I agree that these two licenses probably aren't in (direct) conflict, but I still disagree with mixing, adding, another license. Yes, copyright/law is hell that's better to avoid, imo. Also licensing such piece of (generic) code that "I" want to be included in other projects in order they work correctly with "my" project puts smile on my face :) btw having those #include somewhere way down in the code is, imo, ugly :) My $0.02 USD.
