I feel you still still be careful of the following:

iii.    Distribution Restrictions.  You may not
[...]
*   modify or distribute the source code of any Distributable Code so
that any part of it becomes subject to an Excluded License.  An
Excluded License is one that requires, as a condition of use,
modification or distribution, that
*   the code be disclosed or distributed in source code form; or
*   others have the right to modify it.

It may cause you issues outside debian too.
thanks,
kk
