Ah, it must be a new low of me getting the year wrong ;-)

I wanted the reuse the work Debian already did.  They list:

* BSD-3-clause-HP
* BSD-2-clause-Linaro or gpl-2+
* BSD-2-clause-Intel
* Expat
* BSD-4-clause-Intel
* GPL-2+

BSD-4-clause is incompatible with GPL.
Therefore, it's lucky that they say "BSD-2-clause-Linaro OR gpl-2+", otherwise
we could not have distributed gnu-efi.

So I suggest:

;; Distribution is allowed only when accepting all those licenses.
(license (list license:bsd-2 license:bsd-3 license:bsd-4 license:expat))

What do you think?
