* I believe Jason is no longer around;  maybe Robin Norwood could take over
  this and try to contact the Red Hat Legal Department

* The core perl-RPM-Specfile package has the same problem:
   - same author (Chip Turner)
   - same initial packager (Chip Turner)
   - it doesn't contain any copyright information
     (http://search.cpan.org/dist/RPM-Specfile/)
   - the specfile states the license is "GPL or Artistic"
     $ rpm -qp --qf="%{license}\n" perl-RPM-Specfile-1.19-2.1.1.src.rpm
     GPL or Artistic

* The upstream RPM package started including the perl RPM[2] module as of 4.4.3.
  It now generates a rpm-perl subpackage (http://wraptastic.org/pub/rpm-4.4.x/)

  $ rpm -qpl rpm-perl-4.4.3-1.i386.rpm
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i386-linux-thread-multi/RPM2.pm
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/RPM2
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/RPM2/RPM2.so
  /usr/share/man/man3/RPM2.3pm.gz

  $ rpm -qpl rpm-perl-4.4.6-1.i386.rpm
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/RPM.pm
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/RPM
  /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/RPM/RPM.so
  /usr/share/man/man3/RPM.3pm.gz

  Note: the rpm maintainer has renamed the perl module (RPM2 -> RPM)
