Hmmm... gnulib-tool wants to install it in a project -- which I don't 
want : I just need a posix regex library. Gnulib-tool doesn't seem to 
permit to just get the sources.

I must admit that I'm no licence guru, and wonder why those files aren't 
just under the LGPL... after all the downgrading from GPL to LGPL is 
even done automatically by a script !
