Dear Sylvestre,
I am closing this bug.
Sorry everyone on the TeX side for the noise, and thanks to Arthur for
pointing out my incorrectness.

You did an incomplete quote. The license statement in full is
% Unlimited copying and redistribution of this file
% is permitted so long as the file is not modified
% in any way.
%
% Modifications may be made for private purposes (though
% this is discouraged, as it could result in documents
% hyphenating differently on different systems) but if
% such modifications are re-distributed, the modified
% file must not be capable of being confused with the
% original. In particular, this means
%
%(a) the filename (the portion before the extension, if any)
% must not match any of :
%
% UKHYPH UK-HYPH
% UKHYPHEN UK-HYPHEN
% UKHYPHENS UK-HYPHENS
% UKHYPHENATION UK-HYPHENATION
% UKHYPHENISATION UK-HYPHENISATION
% UKHYPHENIZATION UK-HYPHENIZATION
%
% regardless of case, and
%
%(b) the file must contain conditions identical to these,
% except that the modifier/distributor may, if he or she
% wishes, augment the list of proscribed filenames.
which is a perfectly fine and free and DFSG conform license.
If you doubt this, then TeX and most of its related programs and
packages need to be removed from Debian, too.
Modifications *are* allowed under the condition that different names are
given.
Please don't unearth old discussions that have been made all their way
through the Debian legal vetting, thanks.

I don't close this bug, but I guess it is the same thing.
Thanks
