I'm not a developer either, but from the legal point of view you're right, I'd say. Their README.crypto says:

Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Sudan and Syria. This list is subject to change.
I.E. they are making US export restrictions part of their license --
I think they are simply stating facts, to make the user aware of the situation. If the law places restrictions on distribution, there is nothing a license can do about it.
Is it not the case, however, that this paragraph is made a part of the license, immutable without the consent of all of the copyright owners? Meaning that, should the law change, the license won't?
