ah, i know about PD caveats. but the original source was PD, so i 
don't feel like adding any other license on top of it will be 
good. not that it is legally impossible, i just want to keep it 
as the original author intended. after all, anybody can just fork 
it and add any license he wants. it is unlikely that the thing 
will get extensive upgrades anyway. ;-)
