The question of whether these curves can be kept in Fedora
was brought up on the fedora-legal list some time ago.  The
most recent status update¹ from Fedora Project Leader
Matthew Miller on January 28, 2022 says:

    Sooooo, these things move slowly, but this _is_ being
    worked on. I'll let you know when I can.

That sounds midly hopeful.  With luck, the curves will be
cleared for inclusion (at least eventually, even it not
terribly soon).
