You know, a lot of people developing software in the free software
world complain about why a lot of other people don't re-use more code,
instead of reinventing the wheel over and over...  This kind of
question is exactly why: the licensing problems are too troublesome
and confusing.  In many cases, easier and better to just re-implement
your own code with the license you want to use.
