Just stumbled across the following while looking at the link you posted:
"... It is a redistribution contract allowing distributions to
distribute the binary Fluendo GStreamer MP3 plug-in free of charge.
...", http://www.fluendo.com/shop/product/fluendo-mp3-decoder/
Maybe this even allows to officially re-distribute the mp3 decoder as
part of PA or even Mer?
But note that there are some more remarks about mp3 patent stuff below
on that page.
