Most of gpuocelot is not BSD but "BSD plus you must obey US export
restrictions (even if you are not in the US)" [0]. This is both
non-DFSG-free [1] and impractical for Debian to enforce, and is hence
not permitted even in non-free [2].
gpuocelot's authors have been asked to remove this restriction, and have
not publicly replied [3]. Even if they did, gpuocelot would still be
non-free due to ocelot/ocelot/cal/include/{cal.h,calcl.h} (no explicit
permission to modify, though boinc lib/cal_boinc.h suggests these may
have since been relicensed) and
ocelot/ocelot/cuda/interface/{cuda.h,cuda_internal.h,(partly)
cudaFatBinary.h} (no explicit permission to modify or distribute).
It is also uninstallable in sid as it requires old versions of several
of its dependencies (eg. nvidia-cuda-toolkit <=5 [4]).
