We do not use 'free licenses' or 'open source' or similar terms to
describe packages in Guix, as that is implied by our FSDG promise.

This should be gpl2+, since the license text mentions (emphasis mine):

	This font is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it
	under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the
	Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, *or (at your
	option) any later version*.

I've applied it with small changes for the above.

Thank you!
