Provided that Keld Jørn Simonsen agree with this, we would be very happy to see this file officially put under a Free license. Using the same license as the glibc would be fine for us.
Do you have a working e-mail address of Keld? The one listed in the files no longer works.
Jean-Philippe added "keld@keldix.com" to the CC field so I guess that might be what's needed.
