If you check the fluid-soundfont package, you will find it only has four files outside of the Debian directory. There has to be an authoritative original source that we trust, and in this case the original source is at [0]. I'm not sure where the quibble is: each of the four files is Copyright (C) Frank Wen (and unless this is disproven by a court, surely remains so), and each file is MIT licensed.
