I used the license above because the old file did so. I think they came "as
is" from the TEX sources, and the original licenses where kept. But my
hyphenation file was written from scratch, and I have no objection to
changing the license to match FOP's. However, I would like to add a
matching Portuguese translation to the file, to keep consistency. Which
license is to be used for the hyphenation files? The same used for the Java
code, I supose?

I agree.
Should probably take a look at it and if we cannot distribute then remove
them.
Maybe we could try to make them available in some other way.
