Ohh - silly me.  Yes, I see it now, and perfectly agree with you.

Upstream licensing is indeed (possible to interpret as) AND'ed not OR'ed 
- http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/#(16) contains this:

I contacted upstream just now asking for clarification.

I have tried in the past without luck to get in touch with upstream for 
other reasons (offering a tiny bugfix and translation to danish), so I 
would appreciate if someone else could try as well - in case e.g. his 
mail system has mine blacklisted.

I also tried calling upstream by phone - will try that again later 
tonight and (if I remember it) tomorrow during business hours.

Failing to get in touch with upstream, I will repackage with Slidy code 
stripped (also from source).
