This decision is consistent with the analysis [1] done by Software
Conservancy Freedom, at least.

I have not read a clear position by the FSF.  They only analyses [2] the
incompatibilities of licenses but their analysis is not fine enough to
conclude what is their position about distributing ZFS; although they
say «ZFS is free software», thus nothing prevent Guix to distribute
source code of ZFS.
