Raw CFF fonts can have FSType font license information embedded (see http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/FontPolicies_v9.pdf for details) but this isn't currently supported in FreeType (only FSType info for Type 1, PostScript CID, Type 42 and the equivalent fsType entry in TrueType/OpenType OS/2 table).

Attached a patch which implements this. I'm not sure that the chosen way (extending CFF_FontRec structure with PS_FontExtraRec pointer entry) is the right way to do this.
