Update on this for the curious:

 - One of the authors of the code agreed to release it to
   as public domain so we could relicense it as whatever.
 - The zipfile routine author has still not responded.

Of further complication is that there is not real maintainer of figlet
currently.  Trying to figure out if we can rectify that and make a new
release on the code.

Also, I'm wondering... the clause in the zipfile routines says any
changes must be emailed to the author within 30 days.  Could this
feasibly include licensing changes?  We could make a new release,
change the license on the code and send notification of this to
his email address as required by the current license...

Anyways, will see what comes of all this.
