Breaking my claim of silence - I think Stephen has presented the Debian
interpretation, but qualified several times that Debian may be incorrect.
I spent quite a lot of thread space on exactly this issue - that forcing
an additional license to be imposed on the user, is indeed an additional
restriction. People either get it or they don't. It would either stand up
in court or it wouldn't. :-)
Cheers,
