I've seen (and installed as part of a proof of concept in a previous job -
and not JSW, it was Ghostscript or something) some software that, rather
than packaging things like this with the product, simply provided long
instructions that included downloading and installing the third-party
software then configuring it to work with their software, thereby avoiding
any such license violations.

To me, this would seem to violate the spirit though perhaps not the legal
wording/requirements of any such license...
