Since librsvg is an _optional_ dependency, IMO the answer is YES by
definition, right?

Yes, I think copying the XPM file would be okay.

Alternatively, we could move and rename the new SVG files.  They are
in a separate directory just because of the license?  If so, I don't
think that's a string enough reason to segregate them, we could just
mention in the README in etc/images that these files (with an explicit
list) are from so-and-so place under such-and-such license.
