One should not refer to non-free source code
when developing free source code.  If the
'free' code is seen to be derived from the
non-free code, in any way, the owner of the
non-free code might be able to claim ownership
of the 'free' code.

It is preferable to reference documentation
(eg. datasheets or standards) rather
than source code.

Regards
John
