See the comments in idea.c - Ascom explicitly says that you have to
acquire a license for nearly all kings of usage.

Patented networking code in libc?  I don't know of any patent and I
have never heard that someone claims that libc uses a patent them.

by the GPL.  In fact that was the reason GnuPG has been written.
