After a series of e-mails with the upstream maintainer, I've gotten clarification that clauses 4-6 are meant to be jokes via the addition of a new clause 8: http://dumb.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=licences [There isn't a clause 7.] I'm personally still not happy with the license, but that's because it's not sane, not because the intent is to make it fail the DFSG.
