That site says:

 Source Code

 In order to satisfy all the needs to have total control over the
 software, the complete AmanithSVG (along with AmanithVG) engine
 source code is always available as a licensing option.

How can we use a library that is not Free Software and whose source
code is only available "as a licensing option"?  The SDK they tell to
download includes only binaries and header files, the sources of the
library itself are indeed not available.
