Notice that in the ocaml case, it is well possible that the additional
licences is more near the BSD, since it allows for third party to make
modifications under a more permisive licence than the LGPL/QPL duo.

So, would a wording where QPL 3b is modified to say that it may be relicenced
under the QPL and under a more permisive licence be acceptable ?
