I think someone needs to sit down and do this in a structured manner.
A number of license files were modified.
For each file, the old checksum needs to be searched for in the tree,
and the license modified.

A grep for "LICENSE =" should reveal offending recipes with "<recipe1> 
&& <recipe2>"
or "<recipe1>/<recipe2>" etc.

At the moment, OE-core seems totally broken.
