I think so. Xilinx FPGA tool chains are listed in repology, I'm quite sure one could find more examples of other non-free software -- for example all of debians non-free repository seems to be listed there listed there, it lists non-free firmware, etc. Concentrating on nmap here is a redherring. Anyway, if repology.org has a general practice of listing only free software, I would not criticize it for having difficulty with an unclear case like this. It does not from what I could see on the web page, it lists everything that is added. What matters for judging repology.org is its general policy. Can someone show me that? They don't have one, what I could see.
