This sounds like the infamous GFDL's "Invariant Sections": if I
understand correctly, any "descriptive text" which is "identified" as
an "Attribution Notice" must be preserved in its original location and
(it seems) cannot be modified.
If the clause really means this, then I think any software package
licensed under these terms fails DFGS#3, whenever it includes such
attribution notices.
