As otehrs have said, it is GPL.

Fedora's part to remove that from the upcoming 2.6 kernel based
releases.

very doubtful that the SCO Group has any proprietary claim to these code
fragments in any case."


I wonder what happens if SCO goes around "terminating licenses" and
nobody pays any attention. ;)
