Delegating to another class just adds complexity IMO; the only reason
#license exists is because I didn't want to clutter #condenseSources
with it, and we need that method to put the license statement at the
top of the sources file. I think it makes sense therefore to keep
these methods close to one another.

It was the simplest thing that could possibly work.

In any event, we can change it in 4.1 if we don't like it. In the
meantime, though, I just want to wrap this thing and ship it. We can
argue about what color the bikeshed should be after Squeak is free, eh
compadres?
