Ok, thanks for that info. Subtracting the drivers this is ~5k LOC,
right?
Two ways of dealing with ths include (1) contacting the developers and
asking then to relicense, and (2) writing a replacement (it's not that
big).
The FSF can't offer to rewrite it, but we could halp find any
developers who are now difficult to contact.
