That's a matter of ethics, mostly. I think it's not ethical to work on this basis -
Sun provides this licensing system on good faith, and "clean room" developers accept
your source code on good faith. Even when nobody could legally get their fingers
behind it, I think that when developing freeware you should try to uphold high
ethical standards.

Include files are a specification, and these can be used in clean-room conditions.
Just like, for example, the javadoc files which serve as the specification for a
class library.
