We already pull in LGPLv3 _header_ files (in CVS right now):
float.in.h
intprops.h
physmem.h
stdlib.in.h
verify.h
and a couple of LGPLv3 C files:
dummy.c (but this file is literally trivial)
physmem.c
(However the documentation for physmem says the module is under LGPLv2+
so either the documentation is wrong or the top of the file is wrong or
else I don't understand what's going on here).
Unfortunately although all the modules above are LGPLv2, I just noticed
that getpass depends indirectly on realloc. Documentation for realloc
says its LGPLv2+ so I didn't think it was a problem, but the top of the
file says LGPLv3.
License lawyers, on your marks ...
