Hi Sebastiaan.

IMO, renaming GMT libpsl to libgmt-psl seems reasonable to me. It is a step 
towards a cleaner library 'namespacing' regarding GMT.

If it comes to renaming the non-GMT file (and/or package), I won't be 
reluctant. You'll have a good reason than.

BTW, I could not CC this mail to Daniel Kahn Gillmor 
<dkg@40fifthhorseman.net>, that's why I took him out of the recipient list.
