  IANAL, but looks like libexec/tftpd/tftpd.c, and 
  usr.bin/tftp/tftp{,subs}.c have 3 clause now; thought all the 4th
  advertising clause got removed from tree shortly after berkeley rescinded it.
  ( lots of commit messages about it )

  i would not be too surprised if the debian folks just passed along in
  their infotext whatever they got told by the upstream (HPA whatever, in this
  case?), so if you wanted to try to see what claimed bugs were fixed, maybe
  chase that source tree down?  (good luck?).
