I'm not sure of any of these licenses is DFSG-free. AFAIK the CC licenses are considered non-free and I'm concerned about the OSSAL too (that forbids linking against GPLed libraries). And the exceptions don't seem to allow Debian to link against GPLed libraries. Can you clarify the situation?
The OSSAL, at least as defined here: http://people.freebsd.org/~seanc/ossal/ also has a BSD advertising clause:
