This is great news!

However, looking through the sources, it appears that one of the files
(scsh/fname.scm) is non-free software.  It contains the following
header:

  ;;; Code for processing Unix file names.
  ;;; Copyright (c) 1992 by Olin Shivers (address@hidden).
  ;;; Please imagine a long, tedious, legalistic 5-page gnu-style copyright
  ;;; notice appearing here to the effect that you may use this code any
  ;;; way you like, as long as you don't charge money for it, remove this
  ;;; notice, or hold me liable for its results.

If we can't convince Olin Shivers to relicense it, we'll have to rewrite
that file from scratch.
