Which is the problem, there should be an explicit exception and
there isn't.

ResNet here is not allowed to redistribute Microsoft patches,
unless blahblahblah.
The only way I see to circumvent this is to distribute a
batchfile which calls on wget to download the patches straight
from the Macromedia website. (wget is freely redistributable so
you can include it.) Additional benefit is that everybody who
cares can see the source of the batchfile and verify it isn't
trojaned.
