That doesn't make sense. If it only allows non-commercial use, it isn't the MIT license as we normally denote it.

That's because it wasn't. It was a license by MIT, not the MIT license.

Wow, that's a distinction the article needed to express better.

Quoting from the article:
"covered by a license from MIT"
Someone must have a copy of it somewhere. Mine disappeared with my hardcopy manual from 1989.
It was probably good enough at the time Csound first appeared, but by the late 1990s Csound developers were discussing a switch to the GPL. Eventually they agreed upon the LGPL.
