If you leave the GPL on the code, and don't violate the GPL by integrating it with non-GPL compatible code, you don't need to pay me. You can probably talk me into granting waivers on trivially incompatible with the GPL licenses. Where you need to pay me is when you want someone (yourself or MS or anyone....) to be able to add to BDS+ReiserFS without making their additions free.
