Ah, yes, the copyright holder can do this. But given two programs (A
under the GPL and B under another copyleft license), I can't produce a
derived work of both A and B without problems - the only way to satisfy
the licenses would be for my work C to be released under both, and I
don't have the right to do that since this would now effectively mean
that there was a version of A under the other license and a version of B
under the GPL.
