Hi, it seems that Apache Ambari is also shipping Font Awesome: https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/trunk/ambari-web/app/assets/licenses/NOTICE.txt They state that it has the Creative Commons license. But I agree with you, the website says it is OFL licensed.
But the website that lists all cleared licenses has OFL as category B: http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b See also https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-112 So from my point of view, everything is okay with this license.
