No, you've misunderstood the problem (not surprising, many people have).
The GPL prohibits distributing GPL binaries linked against GPL
incompatible libraries.  'Debian licensing' (were it to exist) has
nothing to do with it.  Debian is unable to redistribute the binary
applications you want - you are free, however, to make them for personal
use.  You are free to make them from the distributed Debian binaries,
even.
