Best solution is to just change the text in the generated file to be
more clear that the license for the generated source is the same as
that of the source code files fed into gdbus-codegen, rather than the
source code of gdbus-codegen itself. Do you want to submit a patch for
this? I'm sure it will be accepted after a bit of haggling about the
exact wording. I would be really surprised if this was not the original
intent.
