Must this be the case? I could imagine the following Configure.help
entry, along with a matching #ifdef...#endif pair.
US Patent 533443 licence or exemption
CONFIG_US533443707
This option allows use of US Patent 533443707. You must say N
unless you have a licence or exemption for US Patent 533443707.
