I guess question for FE-Legal, even though this code is apparently unused, does merely including it in the source tarball rise to the level of making it not freely redistributable? If not, I'm of a mind to close this issue here, and let upstream handle it.
As threatened, closing here with the opinion that we are not directly affected, and continuing to poke upstream to fix it for posterity.
