I see no reason not to consider these programs as amateurs.

The definition of amateurs based on the list of participants is
1)not commercial now
2)The latest commercial version or better version is free today(in case it was commercial in the past).

Some programs like Gandalf and Ruffian are not considered as amateur because 2 does not hold.
