The wording in question is (in part) "... the test driver library,
rwtest,  in ${TOPDIR}/tests/include/, ...".  I believe the words "a set
of headers" were deleted by mistake in r586592.  Adding these words back
in would make the quote read "... the test driver library, rwtest, a set
of headers, in ${TOPDIR}/tests/include/, ...".  I wondered if it would
make sense to note where the rwtest library lives in this first
paragraph, but I think resolving this wording (as noted above) would
resolve my concerns.

  I've reopened the STDCXX-552 issue (which is blocker for 4.2.0)
because I've found 75 files with the old ASL headers in
stdcxx-incubating-4.2.0.tar.gz.

  Now I'm starting making the patch, but maybe it's not so important for
4.2.0
since the RAT tool was passed on these files?

Farid.

Right. As Thilo just reported on general@a.i.o, RAT is happy. See
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A--VOTE--approve-stdcxx-4.2.0-release-p13430768.html

The old headers should be changed, but we should do it under a separate
issue from STDCXX-552. The last thing we want is to give the impression
that we still have a serious legal issue in 4.2.0 now that the IPMC is voting
to approve the release.
