I'm not familiar with Debian convention regarding this so please take any comments here with a pinch of salt. Considering that you've found a precedent, you should be able to package biojppm/cmake together with c4core. Does upstream provide a combined release tarball with it included? If so, I'd suggest using that for the upload and look to split it out of the package if required. Hope that helps.
