Oh!  That makes many things more clear.  I know I've been assuming
"reiser4 non-free" meant the filesystem, not the reference tools which
manipulate it.  So somebody else can reimplement them in free
versions, writing from the specification.  Eugh, what a pain, and what
a waste, redoing all that work, but it's at least feasible.
