This sounds like the sort of thing that GPLv3 was designed to address. I wonder if in the long term the adoption of GPLv3 will make a difference? It would at least act as a 'seal of approval' for buyers; if you purchase a device that uses GNU bash then you know the vendor can't pull your rights from under you.
