I do not know how the files made it into sdcc 2.9.0 and earlier. However it seems they had not been licensed by all rights holders. When this was found out, Microchip Technology Inc. was contacted, and they said that the only restriction that applies on theses files is "the file can be used only with authentic Microchip devices" > Could you please point out which files are affected? AFAIK all files, that now (from just before sdcc 3.0.0 onward) reside under device/non-free, i.e. the following: pic12f629.h pic12f635.h pic12f675.h pic12f683.h pic14regs.h pic16c432.h pic16c433.h
