Just renaming the DLL and registry keys is not enough to avoid conflicts
with an existing cygwin1.dll. You will also have to modifiy the name of
the shared memory region and all other shared objects.
From a licensing point of view you can do anything you want as long as
you provide the source packages to build the binaries. AFAIK. IANAL.
etc.
