Yes, Makefile change should be in another patch.
I don't know how to change the header on that one though.
Intel and 6WIND shouldn't really have any copyright on the Makefile, though?
It looks like somebody just cut and paste the license header from 
another Makefile.
Please suggest what should be done with this file.
