Microsoft is quite strict and serious about its copyright, as should
everyone be (both open source and closed source). We should always err
on the side of caution in these matters. If the material to be added to
LLVM is copyrighted and there is no *explicit* license accompanying that
copyrighted material then we must assume there is *no* license. That's a
harsh stand, but these days I think its necessary. We don't want some
SCO-like bean counter 10 years from now saying "Hey, you stole our
code".
