Very questionable. However, nobody wishes the nVidia stuff to go away so nobody is going to squawk.

It can be a problem for applications as well. I may need to read reiser file systems somewhere. The obvious thing to do is grab the Linux code to do so. But not if my app is GPL3- license incompatibility.

Welcome to the problems that the BSD folks have.
