Right. The only copyright information or license grant in the distfile
is McKusick's permission for the BSD daemon image, nothing else.

If there's no copyright information for something, it is _not_ public
domain, it is copyrighted by the creator.

Looks to me like, if it's imported at all, it needs to be set for
no redistribution of packages or distfiles.
