ACK'd. AGPL-1.0 has been a thorn in my side for a while; its text is close enough to the GPL to almost match as-is, and then as soon as dual-licenses or extra text is thrown in it's enough to throw things off. Open to suggestions. As much as I'd like avoiding curating license sets (beyond "just using SPDX's dataset"), this might be a special case.
