No, the same terms as I received them under: this is how the copyleft
works.

The license in this case is GPL + extra bits. The text of the license
says licensees may not add extra restrictions. But I still have to pass
it on under the license I received it - GPL + bits - because without
standing in copyright, or the right to sub-license, I can't change the
license on the work.

Cheers,

Alex.
