 From Robert Hogan via https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4257 :

 Note: This includes a macro with a new license which is added to COPYING.

This looks like the 4-clause BSD license to me, which is incompatible
to the GPLv2+, or am I wrong?

Doh!  My first thought on that patch was to ask someone who was familiar

doesn't look that bad.

<sigh> Lesson learned.
