-Red Hat, Inc. licenses Cygwin to you under the terms of the GNU
-General Public License version 2 (GPLv2), as published by the Free
-Software Foundation, along with the additional permissions given
-below.
-
-There is NO WARRANTY for this software, express or implied, including
-the implied warranties of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
-PURPOSE.
-
-You should have received a copy of GPLv2 along with this program; if
-not, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt .
-
-
-Additional Permissions:
-
-
-1. Linking Exception.
-
-As a special exception to GPLv2, Red Hat grants you permission to link
-software whose sources are distributed under a license that satisfies
-the Open Source Definition with libcygwin.a, without libcygwin.a
-itself causing the resulting program to be covered by GPLv2.
-
-This means that you can port an open source application to Cygwin, and
-distribute that executable as if it didn't include a copy of
-libcygwin.a linked into it. Note that this does not apply to the
-Cygwin DLL itself. If you distribute a (possibly modified) version of
-the DLL you must adhere to the terms of GPLv2, including the
-requirement to provide sources for the Cygwin DLL.
-
-See http://www.opensource.org/docs/osd/ for the precise Open Source
-Definition referenced above.
-
-
-2. Files Excluded from GPL Coverage.
-
-Red Hat grants you permission to distribute Cygwin with the following
-files, which are not considered part of Cygwin and are not governed by
-GPLv2, in source or binary form.
-
-winsup\testsuite\winsup.api\msgtest.c
-winsup\testsuite\winsup.api\semtest.c
-winsup\testsuite\winsup.api\shmtest.c
-
-Red Hat grants you permission to link or combine code in Cygwin with
-code in or corresponding to the following files, which are not
-considered part of Cygwin and are not governed by GPLv2, and to
-distribute such combinations under terms of your choice, provided that
-such terms are otherwise consistent with the application of GPLv2 to
-Cygwin itself. You must comply with GPLv2 with respect to all
-portions of such combinations other than those that correspond to or
-are derived from such non-Cygwin code but which do not correspond to
-or are not derived from Cygwin itself.
-
-winsup\cygserver\sysv_shm.cc
-
-
-3. Alternative License.
-
-Red Hat sells a special Cygwin License for customers who are unable to
-provide their application in open source code form. For more
-information, please see: http://www.redhat.com/software/cygwin/, or call
-+1-866-2REDHAT ext. 45300 (toll-free in the US).

-Outside the US call your regional Red Hat office, see
