This is taken from http://www.sleepycat.com/licensing.html:
If you redistribute your application outside of your site and
your source code is not freely available and redistributable by
others, then you require a commercial license from Sleepycat
Software.
This means that the software's presence in FreeBSD makes FreeBSD
unsuitable for building and selling a black box solution.
