This license has tenatively been agreed to by all parties. The

agreements are not yet final -- I'll probably have a no-change commit
with a log message when the agreements are final -- but I'm tired of
having to go lookup the license text in my mail archives.  :-)

Note that this license is vanilla BSD except for the 2nd-to-last
paragraph.

This commit was SVN r5794.
