You have a similar issue with OpenAFS.

AFS is ancient, as old as X Windows or Kerberos. Part of that Athena project.

IBM released code for it and it has gone through tremendous improvements in terms of performance, code quality, and stability. Especially with newer releases.

But it's not under a GPL compatable license. Nobody can do anything about it since the original copyright owners are far gone and numerous. Still open source, though, and not a derivative of the kernel.
