Minor self-correction: we seem to be using an MIT license, not a BSD
one.

I was just observing that some Darcs hackers seem to be averse to
including the boilerplate from tests/EXAMPLE.sh and prefer to write
things like "Public domain - 2010 Fred Bloggs"

So I thought maybe we could just bend with this.

I'm looking to see if there's an acceptable two-liner ie. that deals
with the warranty thing reasonably clearly.  I'm not 100% certain
this will defeat the laziness problem, but maybe it will help for
darcs hackers who are simply boilerplate averse.  If not, I'll just drop
the issue and MIT it shall be.
