Summary: response from Debian Legal mailing lista was
affirmative in favor of ISC License being DSFG free. This
means that agrep versions with this license could move from
non-free to main.

All required DFSG freedoms are granted by this text.
The conditions do not impose any non-free restrictions.
By my reading, the grant and conditions are exactly equivalent to the
well-understood Expat license grant and conditions.
This work, provided its complete license grant and conditions was only
the above text, would IMO be uncontroversially DFSG-free.
Golda and Wikinaut: Now the question[1] about the sources
remain. Could you clarify how the sources are related and
how the development is being handled. This will help to
decide proper packaging workflow for Debian.
