The current code does not do this when compiled, which might be a
problem for distributors. Can you clarify the license?
Can you elaborate on this? I did a grep on the string "Redistributions
in binary form must reproduce the above copyright" and I could find
several instance of this. So I am not sure what you mean by "The current
code does not do this when compiled".
You write that the binary form of the code must produce the copyright
notice. I don't see any code that does this. If I was looking in the
wrong place, let me know.

For example, we did a grep of the following
