Not on the sly. Appendix I (differences between 3.1 and 3.2) clearly
states:

    The statement about Pixar's copyrights and trademark rights has been
    altered to permit use of the interface by rendering programs without a
    written license. 

I noticed this years ago.  Are you sure it's new in 3.2.1?  Seems like
it was earlier than 2005 when they changed it.
