Yes, they should granting an additional permission to link with
libraries covered by the Eclipse Public License. Granting that shouldn't
be a problem since they already think it's allowed.
The only nitpick is that all copyright holders (of the GPL code linking
with incompatible libs) would need to agree on this, not just eg. the
main developer.
