If I understand it correctly, this tool is only used during the build
process. As long as it doesn't effect the license of its output and is
not installed as part of the binary package, I don't see a problem in using
it during the build process or including it in the source distribution.
We have to make sure its license is correctly mentioned in our COPYING
file.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
