Rather than us guessing at the meaning (which I feel *is* rather
ambiguous), would it make sense for someone to request clarification
from some suitable representative of Lucent, telling them exactly what
the plans are and asking if they're compatible with the license?  The
Web page has a pointer to Brian Kernighan...I'm pretty sure he'd know
the answer.  :-)
