After | talking to @swills, he decided that we should get this port in | first and sort out the licensing (including changes to Mk and | remaining legal questions) later. A bold decision. While the licenses may have 3 clauses they aren't close to being BSD-ish and clearly non-free. At the moment distributing the package created with the port seems to violate the licenses (by not including them) so the port should probably get marked with RESTRICTED or NO_PACKAGE until the license issues are taken care of.
