I have no plans for that currently, FoxIt didn't use any other
functions that were implemented in FreeRDP. Stubs were sufficient for
those.

The licenses are different, but Marc agreed to relicense under LGPL 2.1:
Hi Austin,


You can go ahead and use my asn1 sources from FreeRDP/WinPR under the
LGPL2.1 license. I am the only author for that module, and I am giving
you a copy of it under the LGPL2.1 license as of today. The mention
you intend to put in the source code should suffice to avoid
confusion.

Let me know if you need pointers on how to continue the work on
reversing msasn1.dll. Stubbing the headers took a while, you at least
have that already done for you :)

Best regards,
-Marc-Andre

I don't know the details for how FreeRDP implemented it.

OK.

I'll test.
