Where "the document" is the text LRM, yes. It does not say anything
about Magnus' html tags he put around that text. Magnus' license does
talk about that; it says I can't post it on my website in html form.
Lots of Ada books quoted the LRM in places too. That doesn't make the
whole text of the book freely distributable.

Clearly if I want to cut out the actual LRM text and paste it into
something else, the original license applies. But if I want to do
something involving the HTML tagging, I'd think I have to follow Magnus'
license.
