Well, gcc does it with multiple COPYING files, e.g. COPYING, COPYING3,
COPYING.LIB... but they also provide the install information in an
INSTALL subdirectory.
In order to be most "gnu"-like we could provide a COPYING subdirectory
that contains the COPYING file=GPL2, plus the various licenses that
RTEMS carries.
