OK, then I'll rephrase it: If the GCC project were to change their policy so that there is no longer any document signed between the submitter of the code and the FSF, then what would the project do if, unknown to them, some employee of a large company contributed code without the permission of his employer, the project distributes that code, and then the large software company sues for infringment?
