 From Robert Hogan via https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4257 :
Correctly decode and display the buffer address in SBA orders. Note: This includes a macro with a new license which is added to COPYING. 

This looks like the 4-clause BSD license to me, which is incompatible
to the GPLv2+, or am I wrong?
Doh! My first thought on that patch was to ask someone who was familiar with licensing stuff to look at it. Then I thought, well, the license doesn't look that bad. 

<sigh> Lesson learned.
