"The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included
in all copies or substantial portions of the Software."
That's the quote in question, isn't it? Where does that say that it no
longer applies to generated binaries?
(When I include MIT dependencies myself I tend to interpret it as notice
both in the source and at runtime, since I personally can't make much
sense of it. So I tend to go with what I hope will avoid me trouble, as
a completely uninformed person. Needless to say, please don't interpret
anything I say as legal advice.)
