Perhaps you should look at http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.1/LICENSE1.html
Assuming that Tenon uses XFree86 sources (an assumption that I am unable to verify-- for all I know it could be derived from the X consortium sources), Tenon is perfectly within its rights to sublicense such software to its users.
on http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/x11/intro.php#def-xtools it says:
1.5 What is Xtools? Xtools is a product of Tenon Intersystems. It is a version of X11 for Mac OS X, based on XFree86.
