(a) If you have an old version, you can always add it to
ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES. That is as much work as picking up a newer
"authoritive" version. It doesn't force a required bump.

(b) I strongly hope that the list of licenses converges soon to a stable
set.

That said, I would also prefer if the licenses themselve would be
annotated to whether or not they are acceptable, but that's a different
question.
