Ok, ...

We will be using it with ocamlsdl also, but i suppose we will be using
a separate set of bindings for those, since the gdkpixbufs and the sdl
surfaces differ, but just in order of the structure.

Yes, i think the debian package of librscg is mistaken, since the
copyright file in the binary packages tells something different than
what is in the source file, and i only checked the former. It also
seemed strange to me. I will fill a bug report.
