I don't think that's the case. The text in the main guidelines page is
rather broad:

"Fedora packages should make every effort to avoid having multiple,
separate, upstream projects bundled together in a single package.
However, when this is unavoidable, packagers must apply for a Bundling
Exception with the Fedora Packaging Committee."

That just says 'multiple, separate upstream projects' (nothing about
being 'compiled in'), and implies that absolutely any such case can
only be included with an explicit 'Bundling Exception'.
