I guess I'll have to close this one as the sgi license isn't free software
according to the FSF:
The "SGI Free Software License B", although its name says "free",
is not a Free Software License. It has three major problems. 1.
It restricts its patent license to unmodified versions of the
software. 2. It terminates if your use of the software infringes
copyrights or patents which are not SGI's. This is problematic
because it gives SGI grounds to sue you even when you have done
nothing to them. 3. The license requires you to inform SGI of
legal problems with the software. This violates your privacy
rights, and can conflict with professional confidentiality
requirements, such as attorney-client privilege.
