As I parse the SGI PR-speak, IRIX is to be folded into Linux over time in

IRIX has been disencunbered of it's AT&T/Univel/SCO whatever...  It
really is a good time to be alive.

Has anyone mentioned to them that they will be unable to incorporate
changes made to the GPL'ed version of XFS back into the IRIX version
of XFS, without IRIX becoming GPL'ed?
