The licence so described looks to me the same as LZF's licence.

however at least I would prefer the author to dual license it ANYWAY,
because compression stuff generally is riddled with patents; the author
GPL licensing it at least gives all users a license of the authors
patents (if any).


Right, for kernel side the BSD license is too "simplistic".

I like to see a ACPI style license.
