I wonder why this code is copyrighted Cagney and not the FSF, since I thought that one requirement for pushing to the FSF tree was assigning your changes to the FSF. Not sure what to do next... Regardless, there is a COPYING at the root of the sources, so perhaps we can rely on version 2 of the license being available there. > Also, in gdb/ it appears some new gplv2 or later files have crept > in: Fixed most of them. I haven't had time to look at gpl.texi yet, so I have no idea what this file is used for yet. I suspect that we should have updated that file too. -- Joel
