This is the ‘Expat’ licence, often ambiguously called ‘MIT’.

As noted on IRC: I've mirrored that file from a debian system[0]. 
What a mess: it's *almost* 
<https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:Clarified_Artistic_License_1.0>, 
but not actually the same (e.g. points 3.e & 4.e are missing).

Considering this is what Debian calls the ‘Artistic’ licence, 
though, we can be almost certain that other Guix packages have the 
same subtle difference already.

Kind regards,
