I don´t understand this. I understand the exception | As a special exception, you may create a larger work that contains | part or all of the Bison parser skeleton and distribute that work | under terms of your choice, so long as that work isn't itself a | parser generator using the skeleton or a modified version thereof | as a parser skeleton. Alternatively, if you modify or redistribute | the parser skeleton itself, you may (at your option) remove this | special exception, which will cause the skeleton and the resulting | Bison output files to be licensed under the GNU General Public | License without this special exception. so that it allows distributing the software under any other license as long as the generated parser isn´t a parser generator in itself. I don´t think that the parser in here is a parser generator. As far as I understand parser_gram.c and parser_gram.h just parses loadable workload descriptions.
