Okay, so that leaves the second option, split licensing. Ie. leave the
files containing mini-X code as they are (possibly rewriting them over
time and changing the license when none of the original is left), and put
new code in seperate files under whatever license you want. That shouldn't
be a problem from the GPL perspective, as it allows linking with code
under a less restrictive license.
