I think it was Intel that did this some years back. They
copyrighted the masks as images. Any chip is a photocopy of the masks, so
copyright and licensing does apply to chip manufacturing. Possibly that
would be less useful today, because derived works are made through HDL
editing and synthesis, rather than mask image editing.
