I would like to add a new m4 macro definition (AC_PROG_SWIG) to the CPP
build directory but it has the following license text. I understand
that GPLv2 is not compatible with the Apache license but I don't know if
the stated exceptions make it ok to incorporate this source.
Can someone with more legal knowledge that I have weigh in on this?
Thanks,
-Ted
