The license refers to several patent applications.  As far as I can
tell there is one issued patent, 6,986,049, which probably covers DKIM
although the use of the word "domain" in the claims is confusing.

It would be nice if Yahoo offered a cleaned up version of the patent
license (unrelated to the GPL sample code) but I wouldn't wait for
them to do so.
