libwmf is in the FreeBSD ports system, and quite a few ports seem to
use it (cd /usr/ports;make search key=libwmf).  

Also note that while you are correct about the difference between a
library and an executable program ("application"), libwmf comes with
several little programs that use the library to convert wmf files into
other formats.
