Paolo,

I found the reference for this package:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin32/libc-0.2.2-src.zip?download

Interestingly, most of the files are placed in the Public Domain, except
for some implementations that were taken directly from the GNU C library
(which are obviously GPL).  Consequently, it seems safe to use these
functions in GNU Smalltalk as there should be no licensing issues.

Thanks,

-Brent
