New Revision: 267544
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/267544

Log:
  Update license to strptime(3) implementation.
  
  Our strptime(3) implementation was the base for the illumos
  implementation and after contacting the author, Kevin Rudy
  stated the code is under a 2-Clause BSD License [1]
  
  After reviewing our local changes to the file in question,
  the FreeBSD Foundation has agreed that their contributions
  to this file are not required to carry clause 3 or 4 so
  the file can be relicensed as in Illumos [2].

- * I'm not sure why that's "plain unacceptable" to the FreeBSD team.
