[bug#44775] [PATCH] WIP: Add gccemacs

[Morgan Smith]

Hi John,

(And hi Andrew. We're discussing including your code into the main Guix
repository. You can view the full conversation here:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44775)

The code I linked to is already licensed under GPLv3+ meaning that you
are free to integrate their code into the Guix code-base (Going to put
here that I'm not a lawyer and that this is not legal advice and might
not even be correct). You should indeed put a little copyright line for
Andrew in the code. The exact copyright line you should use seems to be
this (pulled from their git repo):

;;; Copyright © 2020 Andrew Whatson <whatson@gmail.com>

You can do all this without contacting the author, but hopefully Andrew
responds to us with lots of love.

Thanks,

Morgan
