That is one of the things I like about NetBSD, they tend to be a bit
more pratical with Licenses.

And there's a few incidents in the past about license-extremists
breaking the system.

(One case that bit me personally was the alpha-quality BSD-gzip being
pushed into a formal release in spite of it not passing its own
regression tests-- and generating corrupted results for >2GB files for
six months.. Compressed files >2GB? Oh, like a Backup..?)

Wow, glad I missed that one.  Hopefully it was not too bad.
