I am not a lawyer, but to answer my own question, I don't see any 
problem.  CPL 1.0 says:

Contributions do not include additions to
the Program which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in
conjunction with the Program under their own license agreement, and (ii) are
not derivative works of the Program.


and Apache 2.0 says:

For the purposes of this License, Derivative Works shall not include 
works that remain separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to 
the interfaces of, the Work and Derivative Works thereof.

So I suppose that code under these respective licenses can call, 
implement, or extend each other, and be distributed together, without 
any virulence of the kind intended by the GPL.

Cheers,
