Hi Nikos,

For gnulib support, please CC bug-gnulib, don't write to me in private.
The mailing list is the main instrument to share know-how and reach agreement
among gnulib developers.

Your patch is about the modules
'unictype/property-default-ignorable-code-point-tests' and
'unictype/property-not-a-character-tests'. These are tests modules.
Per the documentation
<https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Copyright.html>
they are indeed under GPL and should stay so.

Did you get an error while running gnulib-tool? Don't try to list
the tests modules on the command-line of gnulib-tool; instead use
the option --with-tests to collect the tests of the LGPLed modules.

If this hint was not helpful, then please show your gnulib-tool invocation
and its results.

Bruno
