I'm not clear why yet another Makefile definition was added
to the mix here, given that pkgsrc controls the name of the
licen[cs]e file here in the licenses/ directory and the pkgsrc
Makefile for the package, and that we have enough trouble with
alternate spellings already without adding yet another one for
almost no gain, AFAICT.
