My take on it is that anyone is free to use GPL code for whatever they
wish. If they want to give it to someone else, it's not them using it
anymore, it's the recipient. Thanks to the GPL, the recipient can then do
whatever they like with it too. There is no point where someone is 'not
allowed' to do something with the source.
There are all sorts of things you're not allowed to do with GPL source. :-)

I can copy it, compile it, run it, modify it, extend it, combine it with
other code, delete parts of it, write a novel about it, translate it to
some other language, and most importantly, distribute it. What else
could you ask for? 8)
