It's not a minimig it's just a "FPGA developer platform based on MC68000". I think as long as that claim is made and nothing else it would be hard to touch legaly.
And one could include a simple parallel port setup to program the PIC18. That way NO "software" is present.

Weather the minimig1 hardware is possible to challenge without software, I dault it.
The configuration (*.bit) files might be another story. But forcing that of the net.. Not likely to succeed. There's a lot of other software where the infrigment is clear. And it's still online.

Here's some issues with the SD-Card connector, which may be the reason behind some of the problems:
