Why this port's declared license doesn't verbatim-match SPDX's canonical text for it. The highlighted line (if any) is where the authoritative template comparison first broke down.

MIT mismatch (91.7%)

Normal text of license does not match starting at line #13 column #9 "or" when comparing to template text " the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the ". Last optional text was not found due to the optional difference: Normal text of license does not match starting at line #11 column #69 "the" when comparing to template text " on". Last optional text was not found due to the optional difference: Normal text of license does not match starting at line #2 column #2 "freeglut" when comparing to template text "MIT License "
