I finally received a reply from Takashi Yoshii. He said, his work on gdb was made while working at Renesas Solutions Corp. and therefore the copyright lies with them. Unfortunately, Renesas Solutions Corp. now longer exists. The company has been succeeded by Renesas System Design Co., Ltd. >From the Renesas website [1]: > Regarding handling of former company name in content > Following the reorganization of design and development departments of > Renesas affiliates in Japan dated August 1, 2014, the device solution > development functions of Renesas Solutions Corp.

Do you guys have any signed statements from either of the two companies stated above? Yutaka Niibe is now trying to get in touch with the open-source department of Renesas to sort the assignment out. I have already signed the copyright assignments for my own changes on top of Yoshii's changes.
