A licensee can't, but the copyright holder can. Their license is NOT the 
GPL, but GPL + exceptions & restrictions. That is perfectly valid, just not 
GPL compatible. The exception they have adds extra freedom, and I believe 
the one restriction they add is DFSG-free.

Anyway, I'm not going to get into a big debate about it. The OP is just 
going to have to decide, and if the upload the package, the ftp-masters 
will have to decide what they believe.
