A new version of phpCAS has just been issued which contains an update of the 
license notice, which is now a "real" new BSD license.

The was apparently some confusion between various versions of the library at 
the time of redaction of the phpCAS wiki page.

At least https://www.ja-sig.org/svn/cas-clients/phpcas/tags/1.0.1/docs/README 
seems more kosher now.

Still the issue with the CC domxml-php4-php5.php inclusion is problematic for 
packaging it.
