     Each individual file in this distribution should have a clear
     copyright/licensing statement at the beginning of the file.  If any do
     not, please let me know and I will rectify it.  The following is
     intended to summarize the copyright status of the individual files;
     the actual statements in the files are controlling.

     * The build files---including Makefiles, configure scripts,
       and auxiliary scripts used as part of the compile process---have
       widely varying licensing terms.  Please check individual files before
       distributing them to see if those restrictions apply to you.

     I intend for all new source code to use the license below and hope over
     time to replace code with other licenses with new implementations that
     do use the license below.  The varying licensing of the build scripts
     seems to be an unavoidable mess.
