Maven logic cannot override legal logic.

Legal logic says that the child-to-parent link is either a reference or 
an inclusion.

If it is inclusion, then it is a combined work and you need to obey both 
licenses. If you cannot obey both at the same time (contradictory 
conditions, i.e. licenses are incompatible), you cannot redistribute the 
combination. However, incompatibility does not seem to be an issue here.

If it is a reference, and if you redistribute only one component, then 
you need to obey just that component's license.

Caveats:
- This is not the full picture.
- I have been following software copyright pretty closely over many 
years, so I am pretty confident I know what I'm talking about. Still, IANAL.
