There is no license issue: the CDDL allows a combination
with any other license and the GPL does not forbid a GPL
project to use code under other licenses in case that the
non-GPL code does not become a derived work of the the GPL
code.

In case of a filesystem, I do not see why the filesystem could
be a derived work from e.g. Linux.

If people did like, they could use ZFS in Linux and nobody would 
complian......

The problem is in the first priority, politics then technical problems.
