debian-legal is OK with shipping other libraries which require the system exception to link with GPLv2 code, so I don't find their position to be entirely self consistent. Regardless, if you move to Apache-2.0 you'll still use the system exception to link with GPLv2 code, but it will be much more acceptable.
