Actually, I wonder how happy Cirrus Logic will be if people use their
reference manuals to implement a GD54xx emulation. Clearly, each manual
states right at the beginning that you are not allowed to use it as a
basis for manufacturing or selling anything, unless you have written
permission from them. QEMU is not being sold by anybody AFAIK, but the
question whether writing an emulator is manufacturing an item (a
software item) still remains.
