Ok. The license was originally included in the C library manual because it was the first and canonical use of the LGPL, and RMS wanted to have it there as the canonical place on paper to see the license (akin to the GPL appearing in the printed Emacs manual). AFAIK, it was never a legal requirement, always a GNU policy decision. I have no opinions about that policy, but I presume it has not changed. Thanks, Roland
