I'll try and contact the original author to see if he can accommodate
the FPC project with that code. Or should someone with a more official
capacity (part of FPC team) rather contact the author?

On the other hand... A webserver is a defined algorithm: sockets, TCP,
HTTP, CGI etc... so any web server implementation would essentially end
up being very similar to the same really. So can a software licence
really be applied to something like that [webserver functionality -
implemented protocols]? Just a thought.
