Hi!
Since there has been support by Detlev and Stefan, I have modified the patch in a way to dynamically create the include/license.h file from the COPYING file by the use of a small C program and gzip combined with a Makefile rule.
What do you think now?
Bleah on the small C program (nothing personal, just hate to add Yet Another Program to the build process). How about using echo for prelim text (if necessary) and xxd to create the struct instead? I like making maintenance Somebody Else's Problem (SEP[1])
$ man xxd XXD(1)
NAME xxd - make a hexdump or do the reverse.
[snip other possibly useful flags like column]
-i | -include output in C include file style. A complete static array definition is written (named after the input file), unless xxd reads from stdin.
-l len | -len len stop after writing <len> octets.
