It's even worse, for example, the font rasterizer group page still lists
the font rasterizer as beeing encumbered, while in reality it isn't.

What I do is look into the binary blob and see which packages are still
included in the rt-closed.jar :-) That's a pretty comprehensive list of
encumbered areas.

Cheers, Roman
