@rene: A simple variable assignment cannot be protected by any licence.
There is no creative labor behind, no new concept, nothing really.

The achievement lies in tracking this down to a compiler bug, but that work and
time is not covered by any licence. If they'd upstream it by themselves, I'd
praise them in blogs, mailinglists, releasenotes, whatever. I'd be thankful. 
But they did not and that's what I hate them for. I had to spend *my* time, (my
spare time btw) on trying to find out what's going on. Quite a lot of time that
I would rather have spent on other things. I only stumbled upon the neooffice
entry by pure chance. If I hadn't, I'd still be searching for the cause in
i18npool or sal probably..

But back to the topic (along the lines of section 5 of the SCA):

I, the contributor represent that the contribution does not to the best of my
knowledge violate any third party's copyrights, trademarks, patents, or other
intellectual property rights

If you *really* think it does fall under GPL (which I doubt you do), then reopen
this issue and block it.
