Well, "yourself" is a loose term.  If I were to redistribute MS
Windows across 300 PCs for my employer I suspect some people would
have something to say about that.  Heck, the RIAA wants you to re-buy
music if you want to load a song on an mp3 player that you already own
on CD.

However, for most packages in the tree the issue is going to be how
"free" as in whatever you want the package to be.  If we're going to
have ACCEPT_LICENSE in the first place it seems like this is just a
logical extension of it.
