I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but the BSD copyright and the GPL have nothing to do with each other. The BSD copyright allows you to redistribute modified or unmodified binary or source code along with anything from another vendor (including yourself) at whatever price you are willing to charge so long as you maintain the copyright statement in the source or documentation as well as the conditions of redistribution and the disclaimer of warranties. Does this help?
