IANAL, TINLA, IANADD etc. (see also disclaimer.h in sig) It appears that the crack license has an even bigger exception for the DFSG to drive through: The fee restriction is entirely waved if crack is distributed as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources, provided "you" do not misrepresent the identity of the copyright holder. But yes, that definition is (word for word) in the Crack license too, see the original post. Notice, by the way, that the Crack license sometimes requires the source to be included in the binary package, since it doesn't contain the GPL exemption about "offering access from the same place".
