OK, in that case I'll try to fix the function responsibly, and I'll
try to find all usages of the function and change them accordingly.

I've also sent my side of the copy-assignment paperwork back, and I've
asked my employer to sign their side. I already have a clause in my
contract which says something similar to what is said in the
disclaimer, so things should move quickly on that front.
