This variant of the 4-clause BSD license is on
the SPDX License List but 
with an additional lead-in section: see: 
https://spdx.org/licenses/Caldera.html

wondering why this variant removes the first paragraph. (Perhaps SPDX 
should mark that first paragraph as optional.)

The is, indeed, CDDL-1.0
