And I think this is the port done by the blackdown team and never released because of
Licence Term.

I asked them to release the ports they made as patches, but I never got any response from them
regarding the issue.

They had a working port for 1.4.2 but non-working now due to some library symbol missing.
I got some word that the port to 1.5.0 was almost there but for one bug which prevents the
release of the complete work. It was some years ago and never got any news since.
