    Is there a question of interpretation here?  I thought that the issue
    was whether the license applies at all or not (AIUI it appears not to
    apply, although IMO the intent is for it to apply), which is legally
    quite a different kettle of fish.

What I said applies to ANY legal question about
dealing with some other entity's publications or claims.
