- A few files have other copyright holders. A few of the files needed
- to use the GNU-style build procedure come with a modified GPL license
- that appears not to significantly restrict use of the collector, though
- use of those files for a purpose other than building the collector may
- require the resulting code to be covered by the GPL.

- The atomic_ops library (libatomic_ops) contains some code that
- is covered by the GNU General Public License, but is not needed by, nor
- linked into the collector library or Mercury. It is included here only
- because the libatomic_ops distribution is included in its entirety.
