I'm afraid I'll have to close this PR then -- we would basically be shipping software without any license. IANAL, but it can be troublesome and may amount to shipping proprietary software (I've CC'ed portmgr in case they have something to say here). If you're able to contact the software's author and clarify the licensing terms, we'd be very willing to then add the port to the tree. Cheers.
