Even if cv8.c was locked up tight with licensing, the CV8 file format itself
would not be covered by such license. CV8 is not a Digital Mars file format,
it's a Microsoft format.
Now, if Microsoft decided to assert some sort of IP control over the CV8 format
in order to prevent LLVM from generating CV8 format, whether I implemented CV8
in LLVM or the LLVM did would make no difference. I have no authority over
Microsoft licensing issues and don't speak for Microsoft on them.
