I expect git has an exception in its license terms for openssl. Otherwise,
it's being distributed illegally; this doesn't seem to bother a lot of
people (see for example how so many people ignore the terms of the NDA on
OS X prereleases and ask questions on public forums), but given that Debian
distributes git and they're usually pretty good at being a stickler for
license terms, I would expect the exemption exists and we just have to
confirm it and add it to the Portfile.
