Perhaps maths.scm is the best place, in order to avoid creating a new
module. The Gmsh package is already there. To check; am I right in
saying that a library in one module can be used as an input for a
package in another module? For example, if FreeCAD were to be
packaged, and placed in engineering.scm, could it use opencascade-oce
as an input from maths.scm?

It would be useful to package both versions. There is a difference in
the OpenGL graphics card requirements in going from version 0.17.2 to
0.18.

I have added the information about the expat and BSD-3 licenses. Can
you elaborate on the public domain files and Bison?
Best,
