As usual I forgot to add a copyright line.  Fixed it on my side.

The programs are gpl2+ licensed, but the library has license lgpl2.1+.
Therefore you should write (license (list lgpl2.1+ gpl2+)) and include a
comment clarifying the situation.

Also add your copyright notice.

Otherwise looks good to me.

    Thanks,
      Mark
