Fine with me, since the code is very similar to code in glibc. The other
copyright holder of this module are you yourself. So I'm applying this change:


2011-03-30  Bruno Haible  <address@hidden>

        c-strcasestr: Relicense under LGPLv2+.
        * modules/c-strcasestr (License): Change to LGPLv2+.
        Requested by Eric Blake, for libvirt.
