If B code is significant and copyrighted by B, then there are two
licenses. A does not own B's code. The confusion arises out of the fact
that B's code is derivative of A's. B is fully entitled to separate his
"bits" out and distribute them as a distinct work, even under a
different license. However, the combined work (A's bits and B's bits)
has to follow A's license (as I understand it).
