    You've got to take MODULE_LICENSE() into account. There is

    MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
    MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2");
    MODULE_LICENSE("GPL and additional rights");
    MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL");
    MODULE_LICENSE("Dual MIT/GPL");
    MODULE_LICENSE("Dual MPL/GPL");

    I think it's time to set things right, making

    * MODULE_LICENSE the authoritative place for the license
    (also makes it easier to grep for)

    * sync up license into MODULE_LICENSE
