Perhaps, but IANAL and I figured that concatenating the licenses was
most likely to be correct. The idea is that libraries/base should be
BSD-licensed, but I'm not sure what to do about the copyrights. The BSD
license requires the copyrights to be reproduced in a binary
distribution, so shouldn't all the copyrights be collected in one place?
