I still don't understand the problem. I read the XFree 1.1 license. It's a heck of a lot shorter than the GPL.
The only thing they're asking for (which seems perfectly reasonable) is that they be given credit for their work. You can publish binaries as long as you distribute their license along with any documentation you would be using anyway.
Last time I checked,/usr/share/doc had a whole bunch of stuff. I see no reason why/usr/share/doc/xfree86/license.doc doesn't fulfill this requirement.
Is wanting to receive credit for your work such a bad thing?
