How hard would it be to design the patch so that support for this can
be easily excluded from the build? That way if anybody fears patent
issues and doesn't require this functionality they can spare
themselves the trouble by just excluding it from their distribution
entirely. If it isn't too much work to do and maintain it seems
worthwhile just in case since it was enough to prompt a discussion at
all and none of us are laywers..
Speaking of which, didn't allegro.cc used to have a regular member
that became a lawyer? Who was that again?
