The freestanding rule was really invented for more troublesome stuff were there
is a reverse engineered (and thus not approved by the original copyright
holders) engine. If this type of engine doesn't come with any free data, one
could say that its only use is using it to circumvent the copy protection in the
original games, which is considered a legal liability, this is also know as the
emulator clause in _the_ guidelines.

Similar cases to rott have already been discussed and approved by FESco, see for
example:

Which itself contains links to another package doing the same.
