I think it would be easier for a company using the MySQL approach to be a GNU project since there is only one set of releases.

The benefit to Free Software is obviously greater, but as an outsider, it also looks like it would better fit your company's (Artifex's) business model. Your company appears to make it's money through commercial licenses sold to allow third parties integrate your software into their proprietary products.
