Generally speaking, if they have modified CDDL files in the course of adding support, then they are obliged to make their changes to those files available to their customers (which in the case of a free download can be *anyone*.) That has to be under the terms of the CDDL as well, so those changes could be upstreamed. However, it is not necessarily the case that the changes are complete -- the way they did VAAI for example, they modified a CDDL file to leave a call site behind, but kept the actual implementation in closed source form.
(For the record, I argued against that approach -- as I think there was more to gain by sharing with the community and avoiding code drift than there was in that feature as a differentiator. But I was overruled by the executive management team at the time.)
