I thought the BSD license allowed it to be re-licensed (at least, it
doesn't say you can't), provided the copyright notice was still
attached.  GPL also requires that copyright notices remain intact, I
think (or at least doesn't mandate that they be removed), so there's no
discrepancy and they can be re-licensed as GPL from BSD without issue.
