I'm pretty sure that Apple doesn't agree with the political beliefs of Richard Stallman, even grudgingly. You can't even distribute a GPL'ed application on the Apple App Store.
WebKit was not created by Apple, and is LGPL, not GPL. Apple came up with its own open source license, the APSL, which it uses for certain things. It is not GPL compatible.
