The BSD license is extremely permissive, and is widely considered to be
universally compatible with other Free licenses.
Apache... not as much. So the only downside to this is that you might
end up making jemalloc less compatible with other things as a result,
but since this is only a fix for old RHEL 5, its probably safe to do.
