MySQL and QT (KDE) also have dual licensing. Try to read about them to get
an idea of what you can do. I am not sure but both licenses you can use
freely to make free software (respecting GPL license) but if you use them to
commercial porpuses you must pay I-don�t-know-what. I think it is what you
want.

Dual-licensing a project is not uncommon. Perl has dual licensing, for
example (Artistic and GPL). Like another user mentioned above, GPL is very
clear and strict about code inclusion.

I would contact the author and suggest LGPL, which allows you to
incorporate the LGPL code into commercial applications without affecting
the commercial app.
