Then it's still not free:

In the event an intellectual property claim is made or appears likely
to be made with respect to the Software, you agree to permit IBM to
enable you to continue to use the Software, or to modify it, or replace
it with software that is at least functionally equivalent.  If IBM
determines that none of these alternatives is reasonably available, you
agree, at IBM's request, upon notice to you, to discontinue further
distribution of the Software and to delete or destroy all copies of the
Software you possess.  This is IBM's entire obligation to you regarding
any claim of infringement.

We've just shipped the source for the Jikes Parser Generator to
alphaworks.
It should be available in a few hours:
http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/formula/jikespg.
 We plan no support other than to make sure it processes java.g
properly,
as the Jikes compiler itself is our first priority.

For license-fans: It uses a license based on the revised Jikes license,
i.e., it's the new Jikes license with 'Compiler' changed to 'Parser
Generator'.  The termination clause now uses the same language as the
SecureMailer license (also available from alphaworks).
