first comment :

* a special directory with ./contrib/gpl ?

second comment : 

* I don't really understand your position regarding the GNU General Public 
  License. The GPL is offering multiple advantages for a big project and 
  software like PostgreSQL. For example : 

        * Contribution back to the main tree more easy if redistribution. 
          (like HP and Samba team are doing, copyright holder remains samba team) 

        * More easy to get a RF (Royalty Free) license from a patent 
          owner. (this is guarantee for him that it will not go back to  
          proprietary software where it's not a RF license) (like the 
          UB-Trees)

        * A possible bigger audience.

Dual licensing is also an alternative but could be a real mess. 

It's just idea.
