Doesn't it give you the permission to relicense?  Just write a
small GPL library to add an eye-candy and link them and release
under GPL.  Then the whole UW license is void.  Smells like jail
but enough to persuade Debian-like license-strict people.

BTW, PINE is not released under this licese.  This is the one for
uw-imap2004 IIRC.  PINE's legal status can be found here:

(also everyone knows what a hell it is)
