You're talking about the glue code that links the binary driver into the kernel for both nVidia and ATI right?

I'm not surprised if some nVidia glue code ends up in ATI's glue code. That code has to be open source at least far enough to be "GPL Compatible" so that it can go into a kernel module.

Of course, you can't see any of the code used inside the binary for either vendor.
