I do have first-hand (informal) information from Brad (spender). When buying the patches and support from Grsecurity you are signing a contract. On IRC it was mentioned that you will lose access if you redistribute, but you are in no way restricted from redistributing. Very few people have actually seen the contract, and it is only given to parties that are grsecurity customers.
