Your patch got stripped by the list software (it strips any non-text
mime types for safety reasons).

There's already an open bug for this:
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2582.
I'd suggest adding your patch there (and maybe comparing it to the
other implementation).

As long as any new code is licensed under BSD-compatible terms[1] it
should be fine.  For new code we prefer ISC[2] style but from your
description is sounds like there may not be a significant piece of new
work.
