If it's MPL *only*, you'll have to reject if it's targetted for main.
If, like firefox and friends, it's multi-licensed, then it's fine
(though for firefox, it's a bit more complicated, some parts are MPL
only, but upstream intent is quite clear about the fact they *are*
relicensing in MPL-GPL-LGPL terms, thus the etch-ignore RC bug on
firefox)
