> The correct license for this port seems to be "BSD". Its LICENSE file has three clauses. We refer to the 3-clause and 2-clause versions of the BSD license as "BSD". Only the ancient 4-clause BSD license is referred to as "BSD-old". I changed it in r95447.

The important distinction is not exactly the number of clauses, but
rather the presence or absence of this clause:

3. All advertising materials mentioning features or use of this software
must display the following acknowledgement:
This product includes software developed by {{the organization}}.

BSD-old is actually pretty rare these days since UC rescinded this
clause on everything for which they own the copyright.
