      The software license file exists in two places in the workspace in
          src/share/doc/{jre|jdk}/LICENSE
      and in
           make/ishield/license/license{_jre}.txt

      The former is used by the self-extracting zip files and the Solaris
      Pkgdef and Linux rpm installers, and the latter is used by the
      win32 Ishield Installer.

      There is no need for the license text to exist in two places. The
      win32 Install Shield build should take the standard license from
      src/share/doc/..., format it to 60-char line lengths, and then
      convert it to MSDOS text format (CR/LF stuff).
