+The file ext/standard/rand.c contains the following clause with a statement
+that isn't compatible with the DFSG:
+  "The code as Shawn received it included the following notice:
+
+     Copyright (C) 1997 Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura.  When
+     you use this, send an e-mail to <matumoto at math.keio.ac.jp> with
+     an appropriate reference to your work."
+However, this requirement has been rescinded by the copyright holder in
+message <48E334A2.6050301 at math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp> to bug #498621.

 Two different licences apply to this package, one for PHP5, the other for
 libzend. Both licences are shown here below.
