Missing license for font mgSixhi6.c #27

Hi, since I intend to package parts of your code I was checking single licenses of files. I've found for most of the fonts you are adding

Copyright: 1984-1989, 1994 Adobe Systems Incorporated.,
           1988, 1994 Digital Equipment Corporation.
License: Adobe

and for the file src/lib/font/mgSail8.c I've found

Copyright: 2011 LatinoType Limitada <luciano@latinotype.com>
License: SILOpenFontLicense

but for the file src/lib/font/mgSixhi6.c I failed to find any license statement. At least for Debian this would be a killer feature since no license means non-distributable. May be you know where this file is from and it would be great if you could add this to your documentation. Kind regards, Andreas.

Hmmm..... I'll get back to you.

Our research indicates that this font is licensed under the BSD license as it was part of Autodesk Animator which was released with that license.
