Yes, for several years now.
In Rgraphviz we include the Graphviz source code, which is under Eclipse. But the rest of the R package is under Artistic-2.0 or at least contains code from past contributors which were licensed under Artistic-2.0.
If it is possible to mix these two at all (I do not know the details)...
The standard licenses does not really give an option for this situation, apart from using 'file LICENSE' (with details on this).
Yes, that's why it has been introduced: Describing non trivial license situations.

However, this situation - including an external piece of software - seems to me to be increasingly common. It may be worthwhile to have the possibility of specifying this in a more machine readable way. But it may also be too complicated. I just wanted to bring attention to the issue.
