Not sure if a lawyer was consulted before, but I tried doing the same
using a machine in the Netherlands to build non-US and was told by the DPL
(Bruce, at that time) that it didn't matter whether or not I looked at the
code....I still couldn't upload the result. I really couldn't even
"export" patches to the code (was compiling and sometimes porting packages
to Alpha).
Basically, if what I was told wasn't good turns out to be ok, then it
would definitely help Alpha a bit...
