I checked the mozilla source code and it has the advertising clause. download nss-3.11.9-with-nspr-4.7.tar.gz and look at nss-3.11.9/mozilla/security/nss/lib/softoken/pkcs11u.h and you will see first the usual GPL/LGPL/MPL header and then the advertising clause: /* * Copyright (C) 1994-1999 RSA Security Inc. Licence to copy this document * is granted provided that it is identified as "RSA Security Inc. Public-Key * Cryptography Standards (PKCS)" in all material mentioning or referencing * this document. */ so they replaced only those parts that were like BSD3, but kept the one clause that causes the whole problem. unless there is a new version somewhere with this license changed, I think mozilla and everyone using their PKCS#11 header files has a problem (well, not a big one since no one cares, but ...).
