If the licence in question was a BSD licence, would your imaginary case be any different? I think not - BSD licence imposes different conditions, but it does impose them. And it seems that the judge in BSD v USL case thought that the licence is quite valid.
I don't see how GPL would be different in that regard. For that matter, people have been mentioning (especially ESR) licensing Linux kernel under a new "Open Software Licence", which doesn't seem any different either in that regard.
I was just wondering what you think of the above...
