As I understand, fluidsynth_chorus.c was imported from SoX rather than
the original project by Juergen Mueller. Thus, Chris Bagwell is the one
who can shed light on the origin.

That makes sense. However, the main problem is the permission from
Juergen Mueller and related contributors.

I see no evidence to support such relicensing. Original copyright should
be to dropped if there is no trace from the original file, but this does
not seem to be the case.
