Actually, Apache license is not a problem - it's a liberal, Open Source license, and since libdispatch
is a system library, there is nothing preventing its use by programs under any kind of license, including GPL.

Unfortunately the system library exception is not practically usable by
Linux distributors, which means it'll remain unused by Linux distributions (because what's the point of a system library that you can't link to GPLed code?).
It should just have been unencumbered BSD, dammit.
