Indeed.  Copying will be fine.  The license was borne out of my choice
of font, and my anticipation that if I allowed derivative works, that
someone would invariably hack together "the free Arclight"-- if I
can't find a font that comes close to being as elegant, then I have
some serious reservations about allowing anyone else to do so.  Since
copying doesn't have anything to do with this issue, it'll be fine to
redistribute.
