Actually, it's a re-implementation, for two reasons.  I dislike GPL v2 only since it hobbles v3 projects, and also there are some ugly things in the linux kernel version (eg. node and head are the same struct, and list_for_each() is called list_for_each_entry, and list_add() has its arguments backwards).


License tag is contained in the _info.c file:

 * Licence: LGPL (2 or any later version)

That should be sufficient, no?

Thanks,
Rusty.
