ORBit is LGPL'd, so there's no license conflict.  And you'd just be
linking against it, not really "including" it, depending on how formal
you want to be about it.  The last time we talked about this, I think
it was announced that ORBit would be acceptable, but that was a while
ago.  Are there searchable archives of the Postgres list?
