Would it be feasible to isolate the code that is GPL'd vs non-GPL'd, and 
clearly mark what files are non-GPL'd, preferably by putting them in a 
different CVS module, or sepperate subdirectory of the present CVS 
module, and a sepperate tarball in the next released version?

Doing that would make life /vastly/ easier for distributions, OS 
mirrors, and other such people, as well as people, like me, who want not 
to be tainted.

I notice that there already is a kqemu directory extant -- does it 
include all the non-GPL code?
