Yes, I'd agree with this statement.
On the other hand, it also looks a bit silly (to me) when
distributions refuse to include the file because of this list, even
though the peculiar license doesn't really interfere with using it in
any reasonable way. I don't see that this benefits anyone.
When "free software guidelines" get in the way of sharing useful
software, I wonder if "freedom" is being defined and interpreted too
legalistically for our own good.
