Hi Adam,

You might be right, I've noticed that third clause is slightly different.

The question is still why is it detected as 2-clause when the number of 
clauses, technically speaking, is three.

I'm not sure if the change in the third clause is significant enough to 
declare it 2-clause.

Also if BSD-2-clause is a fallback from unidentified BSD-like license the we  
have a bug in detection algorithm aren't we?

Regards,
Dmitry.
