Any reason it has unittest as a target then? (as shown by mynewt info)

All good I missed that subdirectory reference in LICENSE, so nothing needs to 
be done there.

Hello all,

I am pleased to be calling this vote for the source release of
Apache Mynewt 0.8.0-incubating-b2.

Apache Mynewt is a community-driven, permissively licensed open source
initiative for constrained, embedded applications.  Mynewt provides a
real-time operating system, flash file system, network stacks, and
support utilities for real-world embedded systems.

For full release notes, please visit the Apache Mynewt Wiki:

Tracker Summary:

all" with no failures.  This testing was performed on the following

Well... it's an implementation detail that leaked out :).  The unittest
target is used internally by the "newt test" command.  In the latest
release candidate, the unittest target is hidden from the user in the
output of "newt info" and "newt target show".  The plan is to get rid of
this hack in the next release; then the unittest target won't exist at
all.
