We don't have any such rule within main; for example apt-get installing python-pmw (Python MetaWidgets, a BSD-ish licensed package) will also install python2.1 on you, which has a more restrictive license (it has some change reporting requirements). If you find the restrictions are that bothersome, then it's probably appropriate to just put the docs in non-free. That's what it's for.
