I think it doesn't make much sense to copy-paste their code. If it is
freely available we could simply put a URL link. But AFAIK these code
can only be used in Xilinx CPLDs/FPGAs. So in a way it makes sense to
have a version w/o such constraints. Obviously we can't do this by
copying Xilinx's code since their license doesn't allow this (unless
they did put this under freeware which I doubt). My $0.02.
