I suspect you are right. From memory, the PWAD TXT template that was
used for the majority of files had a three-way license boilerplate:
one was 'you can do anything you want with this file' which is clearly
DFSG compatible; another was (I believe) 'you may use this pwad as a
base for another but you must credit the author' which might be and
another was 'you may not modify this file' which is obviously not.
I suspect the majority of old PWADs used either the second or third
clause and the majority of new ones use none of them (the template
falling out of fashion).
