These kinds of licenses are only really relevant when you are trying to SELL the code you have modified and redistributed for real money. Since P99 is free, RMT is banned, and donations are supposedly only going to maintaining the servers, there really isn't any legal action to be done here.
If on the other hand P99 suddenly became subscription based (let's say with Daybreak's blessing to remove that complication), then the EQEMU guys may ask for the license to be enforced under penalty of legal action.
As far as I am aware there are no EQEMU servers operating with a fee, so the developers of EQEMU don't really care about what people are doing with it.
And remember the EQEMU and all related servers are operating in a grey area anyway, since they do not have any rights to be using the Everquest IP, it's code, etc. The only reason why the entire EQEMU hasn't been shut down is because the owners of the Everquest IP haven't cared enough to go after them.
