I think I've already requested this some time ago, but than forgotten
about it.

Anyway, let me follow the points from the above page:

The package is upx-nrv, and it's license allow redistributing
or modifying the program under GNU GPL with a special exception granted
for compressed executables.

upx-nrv build process consists basically of the two main steps
(not counting the standard ones like installing docs or building deb
package):
1. unpacking the upx binary (i.e. ./upx -d upx)
2. installing the uncompressed binary (i.e. cp upx /usr/bin/upx-nrv)
and I believe the commands can be run on autobuilders.

I haven't mentioned this in copyright file yet though.
