Libxlsxwriter includes the `queue.h` and `tree.h` macros from FreeBSD. It also
includes and, unless overridden, uses the optional libraries `minizip`,
`tmpfileplus` and `md5`. It also includes the `emyg_dtoa` library but doesn't
use it by default. These components have the following licenses:

The `minizip` files used in the libxlsxwriter source tree are taken from the
`zlib` ` contrib/minizip` directory. [Zlib](http://www.zlib.net) has the

The `minizip` files have the following additional copyright declarations:

    Copyright (C) 1998-2010 Gilles Vollant

    Modifications for Zip64 support
    Copyright (C) 2009-2010 Mathias Svensson ( http://result42.com )

Note, it is possible to compile libxlsxwriter without statically linking the
`minizip` files and instead dynamically linking to `lminizip`, see
@ref gsg_minizip.

[Tmpfileplus](http://www.di-mgt.com.au/c_function_to_create_temp_file.html)
has the following license:

    This Source Code Form is subject to the terms of the Mozilla Public

Note, it is possible to compile libxlsxwriter using the standard library
`tmpfile()` function instead of `tmpfileplus`, see @ref gsg_tmpdir.

The [Milo Yip DTOA library](https://github.com/miloyip/dtoa-benchmark) for
converting doubles to strings. It has the following license:

    Copyright (C) 2015 Doug Currie
    based on dtoa_milo.h
    Copyright (C) 2014 Milo Yip

    Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy

    copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is

    The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in

    THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
    IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
    FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
    AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER
    LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM,
    OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN
    THE SOFTWARE.

This Milo Yip DTOA library (emyg_dtoa) is used to avoid issues where the
standard sprintf() dtoa function changes output based on locale settings. It
is also 40-50% faster than the standard dtoa for raw numeric data. The use of
this library is optional. If you wish to use it you can pass
`USE_DTOA_LIBRARY=1` to make when compiling.

[Openwall MD5](https://openwall.info/wiki/people/solar/software/public-domain-source-code/md5)
has the following licence:

    This software was written by Alexander Peslyak in 2001.  No copyright is
    claimed, and the software is hereby placed in the public domain.
    In case this attempt to disclaim copyright and place the software in the
    public domain is deemed null and void, then the software is
    Copyright (c) 2001 Alexander Peslyak and it is hereby released to the
    general public under the following terms:

    Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without
    modification, are permitted.

    There's ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, express or implied.

    (This is a heavily cut-down "BSD license".)

Note, the MD5 library is used to avoid including duplicate image files in the
xlsx file. If you don't want to use this code, and the additional licence, you
can use OpenSSL's MD5 functions instead by passing `USE_OPENSSL_MD5=1` to
make. If this functionality isn't required it is possible to compile
libxlsxwriter without image deduplication by passing `USE_NO_MD5=1` to make.
