Nope, but Xavier and the ocaml team decided to drop the choice of venu clause (which may be illegal anyway, at least in french law), and the QPL 6c, so debian-legal was happy. I suggest that hevea upstream does the same thing too. I believe these two clause are legalese stuff which would never really apply in real life anyway, so they loose nothing.
