Summary: gnu is not public domain

Although it is free, GNU is not public domain.  Their license contains some
significant restrictions, which makes it unusable for a commercial product.
While some might not consider this a problem, it will certainly prevent it
from becoming a standard.  This suggests it is not a good choice as a basis
for Xtk.
