I got it from section 4b of the 2.0 license draft:

  "In the event that your Derivative Work is based upon the Work and
  one or more other works licensed under Creative Commons licenses
  different from this one, you must include copy of, or the Uniform
  Resource Identifier for, any Creative Commons license that contains
  all License Elements contained in this License, plus those License
  Elements contained in the license(s) governing the other work(s)"

It's all bolded and stuff, since it's a change between 2.0 and
1.0. The new license draft is here:

     http://creativecommons.org/drafts/license2.0

I was mistaken in saying that it has to be two works with the
ShareAlike License Element, as that does not seem to be stipulated.
