Unfortunately, the license distributed with the JAR (which we must assume takes precedence over whatever is stated on the web pages) is much more restrictive, it's the Java Research License, which specifically disallows any commercial use. So, short of reimplementing it from scratch it's of no use except for academic study. Pity.

Would that preclude re-implementing the same algorithm in new source code? I'm not clear on whether that violates the license.

No, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't, so long as you don't look at this code, lest you become "tainted" ... ;-)
