>Description:
	Add the Open Works License (OWL, http://sob.apotheon.org) to the list of known licenses with auto-acceptance.
        The OWL is a copyfree license similar to the BSD and MIT licenses.
>How-To-Repeat:
	The sysutils/pcpustat port uses this license, and currently this requires acceptance by the user.  This breaks
	batch build.  I expect to port more software under this license in the future.
>Fix:

	Patch follows:
