But it would make tracking things a bit harder.

So, we've gone round-and-round on this, and Steve is doing what I asked him to here. In sum, this is _not_ BSD-3, it's a one-off from it with some interesting wording changes that mean we can't just call it BSD-3. Since there's nothing else going to use this (and frankly I'm mildly puzzled by how hard it is to dig up an aboot.c with sparse image support that doesn't have this change but also does come from a google domain) I didn't want to add a new license file for this non-standard license. -- Tom
