The file xref.lisp is not PD or GPL (unlike my greps showed) but has a rather obnoxious license that says:

You may try asking Mark Kantrowitz whether he is willing to distribute xref.lisp under a revised license. He did this for MK:DEFSYSTEM,

I contacted him and he is willing to allow xref to be distributed with slime, but is not willing to change the licence as he did for MK:DEFSYSTEM.

This is not 'free enough' for Debian so either we have to put slime into non-free or replace xref.lisp. Or a more able person could talk to him ;-).
