This is a straw man.  The license agreement doesn't cover (doesn't
even try to cover) compiling code and more than editing a document with
emacs would unclassify it.

Did you make use of the source code?  Did you yank the parser
wholesale into your program?  Did you add an optimisation to the back
end?  Those things are covered.  

Perhaps this list needs a mothly "responses to frequently made
claims."

What I would like to see is the attribution of the Partnership for a
DFA quotation.
