Loathing and detesting anything to do with licences, I am not able to 
help you with your question, but it might help if you could clarify what 
"warning" you received about a GPL licence on some hyphen files, /why/ 
"the GPL licence is a real problem", /why/ you must "exclude all links 
to files with such a licence from my product", and what exactly you need 
to "look out for" when considering licences other than GPL.
