It's a bit more complicated than that; if, for example, some excerpt ended
up in regression tests, there would be a question about whether or not
there was a copyright violation.  As I understand the GPL (IANAL), it
requires all parts of a "work" to be GPL'd, and that wouldn't be possible
for any parts of the script that ended up in bash regression tests.
