Where are you getting CPL as the license here? The license text I found was:

   Fairy-Max 4.8 is free software, and you have permission do
   with it whatever you want, whether it is commercial or not.
   Note, however, that Fairy-Max can easily be configured through
   its fmax.ini file to play Chess variants that are legally pro-
   tected by patents, and to do so would also require permission 
   of the holders of such patents. No guarantees are given that 
   Fairy-Max does anything in particular, or that it would not 
   wreck the hardware it runs on, and running it is entirely for 
   your own risk.

It does look free, if inelegant, but we'll have to double check, as it's not on the license list. --donaldr3

Maybe I interpretted wrong

The file fairymax.c differs, says its public domain it also allows to use mit or gpl: http://hgm.nubati.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=fairymax.git;a=blob;f=fairymax.c;h=0198cb49aa37b80657d4555f8e13acee958703a4;hb=HEAD
