Nothing in the GPL rules it out. Maybe the license on the other code says something about it, but the GPL doesn't.



Actually, the GPL 'no other constraints may be imposed' is the reason one often cannot combine & ship. I.e. one cannot ship vanilla GPL code linked with openssl.



The author of openssl could do it if he/she/they wanted to, so it's not entirely impossible. :)
