This would be appropriate if we were shipping sources from differently
licensed components. What we have done - I think (IANAL) - is create
*derivative works* from the original sources. Someone can correct me
if I am wrong, but I don't see how that means that we now have
"subcomponents" with separate license terms. Can someone explain this?

I suggest the following change:
--- LICENSE.txt (revision 798724)
+++ LICENSE.txt (working copy)
@@ -203,12 +203,12 @@
-APACHE COMMONS MATH SUBCOMPONENTS:
+APACHE COMMONS MATH DERIVATIVE WORKS
-The Apache commons-math library includes a number of subcomponents with

This is much better than my simple copy from the example.
I'll check it in in a few minutes, thanks for the fix
Thx. I asked for guidance on this on legal-discuss. I will hold
rolling the next RC until I get a response.
