OK, while I agree with this, it has also made clear the other poster's
point that it is simply too long. Can anyone think of some accurate
terse phraseology that will fit into two lines max? How about
Source License: LGPL(GCL), GPL(unexec,bfd)
Binary License: GPL -- GPL'ed external components (unexec,bfd,readline)

Agreed. Will do this, but how about tying to :ansi-cl in *features*?
