+applications that use U-Boot services by means of the jump table
+provided by U-Boot exactly for this purpose - this is merely
+considered normal use of U-Boot, and does *not* fall under the
+heading of "derived work". Also note that the GPL below is
+copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, but the instance of code
