If the license conditions were good enough for Perl they are good enough for me.

I might spend a lot of time trying to read (and understand) the legal mumble, but is it really worth the effort? Maybe we should change the text to something like "... the same terms as Perl version X.X or higher"

Keep in mind that specifying that the module uses the same licence(s) as Perl means that its users do not have to wonder whether they can use it. If they can use Perl, they can use the module. Fullstop. Cool.
