A starting point may be that some sort of exception and official
approval could be required for code with a license that does not
permit the copyright grant to the IETF Trust required by the
-incoming document.
My starting point would be to tell the person attempting to
contribute the code to go find its original author and have
them grant the necessary license to the IETF, independently of
whatever other license they have put it under, and repeat until
done. I think making exceptions possible will produce a world
of hurt.
