The tool generates a scitab.c with this header:

/*
  * DO NOT EDIT - this file is automatically generated by shgen 
5.07adc7f7e37a_modified
  * Copyright (c) 1998,1999,2000 Ralf Corsepius (corsepiu at faw.uni-ulm.de)
  */

/* This file is not copyrighted */

Files with such a header are not acceptable for an import into the RTEMS 
sources repository  from my point of view. We have three options now:

1. Keep the tools in the RTEMS source repository.

2. Add GPL software to rtems-tools.

3. Remove the gensh1 and gensh2 BSPs.
