It seems that in the directory sound, there are some files 
(fmopl.cpp, mixer.cpp and some of the .h files) which do not 
carry a GPL statement. So, maybe you should ask the upstrem 
author(s) to clarify this.

Are there any DFSG free SCUMM adventures around? To me, this 
looks similar to the situation of lxdoom, which is in contrib.

This seems not a good idea. If the parts in question are really 
non-free, they must not be linked with GPLed code. So if they 
are scummvm-specific, they cannot go into non-free, either.
