Indeed, those binaries must be removed in a ‘snippet’ field in the
‘origin’ object.  See the ‘java-hamcrest-core’ package for an example of
that.

Indeed, the non-commercial clause very clearly makes it non-free.  All
the affected parts must also be removed in a ‘snippet’.

Nicolas, could you look into it?
