JAE> I regard idea.c and rsa.c as free...

IDEA's use and distribution are restricted by Ascom Systec, Limited.  RSA's
use and distribution are restricted by RSADSI.  Commercial use of either
requires a license from Ascom Systec, Ltd. and RSADSI respectively.  The
licenses for both are much more restrictive than the GPL.

They are anything but free in the eyes of the FSF.
