Aha. So this license violates the LPPL. (the TeX patterns are under LPPL,
right?). The LPPL claerly says that you *can* relicense but you *must
either ship the original file with it or tell the people which file you
based on *exactly*.

Plase, people, check licenses and whether stuff is actually distributable
(license-violating stuff IS NOT) before you do something, especially for cases
like this which have been gone thorugh for various hyphenation patterns in the past
and there are issues for many.

I am going to revert that commit later (or at least remove the hyphenation part).
