My take on it was exactly what you said, "it just doesn't grant the user the freedom to modify the program to suit his needs." My take as a user of the program is that I'd much rather see the package in the distribution. I just don't care about the freedos portion, as honestly that's not the part that I would feel I need to modify to "suit my needs." And even so, the code is there if I want to see it, even if I can't compile it. If debian is willing to ship it as-is Fedora should most certainly be willing to. While I agree that long-term it would be BETTER to get the code compiling using the Fedora build tools, I think it would behoove users to have access to the program as-is sooner, rather that block distribution waiting on this. To quote many people from the IETF: The Perfect is the enemy of The Good.
