Wrong ... Like the gcc compiler who is also GPL'd you can and may redistribute the code and binaries.. read the GPL again... The only uselessness is that you have to redistribute your changes if you make some to the code however I think you can ask the author if he also wants to licence that piece of code under the BSD licence ... chances are he will say yes...If someone of the FreeBSD team asks him... I'm shure he will oblige.. Also wait a second... I have the routine from someone I adviced who studies c who gave me the code of his version he wrote to do what I wanted with it Just a sec and I will locate that piece of code.
