That doesn't sound good:

,----
| You are hereby granted permission under the terms of the IBM/MIT X Consortium
| Courier Typefont agreement to execute, reproduce, distribute, display, market,
| sell and otherwise transfer copies of the IBM Courier font to third parties.
`----

This does not allow modification, not even with some requirements with
name/identifier changes.
