I read the file, but did not realise it corresponded to a license we already
have. Anyway, the claim seems to be wrong.

For instance, ssl/bio_ssl.c starts with this:

/* Copyright (C) 1995-1998 Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com)

 */

This is inspired by the OpenSSL license, but not the same.


Then, tls/strsep.c starts like this:

/*-

 */

This is BSD-3 in which "the author" has been replaced by "the University"
or "THE REGENTS AND CONTRIBUTORS".

Admittedly, I did not check all the source files.
