I think we could probably use something along the lines of a README that
includes a bit stating that you're the author of the bulk of the code, with a
reference stating where the codec.c bit came from and that it is also GPL, just
to cover all the bases.

Ah, true.

I'll drop that part of my patch.

For Fedora packages, libtool archives and static libs are forbidden, so it was
solely for the benefit of the package. I'll use a patch that doesn't nuke that,
and will instead remove the file from within the spec.

Other notes on the patch I'm using:
- splitting CFLAGS and EXTRA_CFLAGS makes packaging much easier. Fedora has a
standard set of CFLAGS that are supposed to be used on all packages, so
splitting off the -std=c99 bit into EXTRA_CFLAGS makes life easier, since its
required, but not part of the standard Fedora CFLAGS.
- some of the added $(*DIR) bits are for convenience more than anything, but are
fairly standard.
- you've got lots of extraneous slashes -- $(DESTDIR)/$(PREFIX) works out to
/somewhere//usr -- so I nuke all those.
- I need/want the shared libs, they're greatly preferred over static libs and/or
libtool archives in the Fedora world.
