The iLBC code in RFC 3591 was freed when the company that original authored it (GIPS) was acquired by Google. See e.g. https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1649/ There are multiple people who have extracted this code from the RFC and either included it as-is in their source trees or created libraries out of it. I didn't check the one you pointed at, but I'm fairly sure it'll be the exact same code. The best solution (but I'm not speaking as a maintainer, since I haven't been doing that for the VoIP team for quite some time) would be to package one of these libraries and "port" all the software the uses it to use that. Licensing-wise it won't make a big difference (besides a proper debian/copyright), but it'll help to reduce code duplication and security response.
