How would using MPL code make the program GPL?
And if the code is dual-licenced, it lets the distributor CHOOSE. If I use dual MPL/GPL code, I can use the MPL licence and my code does not become GPL.
Cheers,

I was referring specifically to LGPL-licensed code, not dual-licensed. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
Neither MPL nor LGPL will force the distributor to make their program GPL, it should also be noted.
