Though the license of the original ac(8) source code provides many liberties, we are already somewhat violating it. The license requires us to clearly comment any modifications to the source code, as the original authors of course do not want to get bug reports for modified versions of ac(8). This is something we have not done consistently. The need for such a license clause has become less over time. It is very unlikely that end users will contact the original authors, as the copyright is from 1994. I contacted both the copyright holders. They responded in a timely fashion and were more than willing to relicense it to a 2-clause BSD license. To address any concerns about bug reports going to the original authors instead of me, add my own name and email address to the copyright statements as well.
