Hi Sven.
Glad you did this. There was a bit of controversy regarding the xz bump
at the time after the project got compromised. I don't remember what
it was about, but I don't mind xz at all.
While I don't know about the controversy, I know that the supply chain
attack was done using a modified configure script in the release tarball
(so not present in the git tree).
If this is a concern, I could switch over to the GitHub generated
release archives and switch over to CMake (which is feature complete but
not that well tested).
Could you also be so kind and check the host-* equivalents too?
yeah, thanks for the hint.
Sincerely
Sven
Regards,
Christian

This fixes CVE-2025-31115: Threaded .xz decoder frees memory too early.
Most parts of the COPYING file replaced public domain licenses with
0BSD. But public domain is still mentioned for some old translations.
Therefore only add 0BSD to the license list.
