If the restriction is agreed upon by all copyright holders, then the issue
is murky; as far as I know, there's no consensus on this issue on debian-
legal. (I believe Branden Robinson claims that any such additional
restrictions render the license internally inconsistent, such that it's
impossible to satisfy, but not everyone agrees.)
I don't know of any software in Debian or non-free that is licensed
under the GPL with additional restrictions (except, perhaps, this one).
If you know of any, it might be worth bringing up on d-legal.
