>Description:
According to one-of-those-well-known techie rumour sites on the net, Oracle has relicensed the SUN RPC code which previously had an inconvenient term:

>From /head/sys/rpc/rpc.h
" ... Users
 * may copy or modify Sun RPC without charge, but are not authorized
 * to license or distribute it to anyone else except as part of a product or
 * program developed by the user.
..
"
