Benson is correct that this is not `BSD-3-Clause` given the export language,
which is part of the license. This if I'm not mistaken is the Intel Open Source
License (SPDX `Intel`), an OSI-approved license that Intel used in the early
2000s but Intel deprecated it not long afterwards; I believe it may have been
among the first examples of a deprecated OSI-approved license. 

I don't know about the history of this project, but if people at Intel were
using this license as recently as 2015 that was probably an error on their
part. 

It appears that `Intel` has never been reviewed for Fedora so an issue needs to
be opened at fedora-license-data.
