The mrtg-ping-probe perl script itself explicitly references the
COPYRIGHT file as follows [1]: "See the file COPYRIGHT in the
distribution for the exact terms." (as does the associated perl script
check-ping-fmt, which doesn't get installed with the binary package).
That COPYRIGHT file does not include the "or (at your option) any later
version" phrasing.
