This morning it came to my notice that libxdmcp, and a bunch of other
files (mostly, though not exclusively, in xorg-libs) contain things
like:

LICENSE = "MIT-style"

It's not very clear to me whether "MIT-style" is meant to mean "an
unspecified license in the same general style as the MIT one" or whether
it refers to a single concrete license.  (There is no MIT-style in
meta/files/common-licenses.)

Does anybody happen to know what the intended meaning of this license
is?

thanks
