The Font Awesome 3.0 font itself is now licensed under the SIL Open
Font License, while the relevant CSS files are MIT licensed.

http://fortawesome.github.com/Font-Awesome/#license

You'll note that both of those licenses are GPL-Compatible. SIL Open
Font is listed in the acceptable licenses listing on the codex:
