Well, I'm not 100% sure that means I can re-license it. And IIUIC I would
need to actually *own* the copyright on anything that I want to place under
GPL. So cgf's caution is probably correct and I should really do a clean-room
implementation of my own.
I think it'll be ok to use the list of functions that you suggested as the
basis, however!
