No. Path Pilot is not LinuxCNC. and not covered by GPL. Path Pilot is a Linux application that creates G-code that is then sent to LinuxCNC.
Only if PP was a modified version of LinuxCNC then it would be GPL's but it is not, they are two different bits of software that run on the same machine. Yes, they are distributed together and run at the same time but they are not linked into one executable file.
