 While pkcs11.h in p11-kit [1] said to be licensed as
"permissive-like-automake-output", it's a clear derivation of the
OASIS one. It's even noted that "This file is a modified
implementation of the PKCS #11 standard by OASIS group". That means if
the OASIS implementation is non-free, then I don't see how it's
re-licensed (where the permission given for that) to be free software.
