It does say "conditions" and if you don't consider the warranty

XFree86 1.0 license is also a condition (though an oddly placed and
out
of order condition).
I understood it as having only one condition, from comparison with the
BSD licences, and the pluralisation of condition to be a copying
error. Can someone tell us about how this licence has been interpreted
or enforced in the past?
Unfortunately X-Oz is being less than forthcoming with answering
various
questions. Which is making it difficult to resolve the problem. [...]
Aye, the evasive replies from X-Oz so far do make them look like they
are trying to leave the door open for changing their interpretation
later. :-(
