I don't think a binary file follows the DFSG as a whole if it
contains fonts which do not follow DFSG 2 ("Source Code").
Sorry not to give the answer you wanted.

It may be legally possible to distribute such documents,
depending on the terms of the fonts. I think it is a serious
bug if they are in main.

Hope that helps explain,
