Once again, not meaning to get into a GPL-vs-BSD war here, but... If I take the whole IP stack from BSD and copy it as is into a desktop OS (for the sake of argument, say Winduhs), would you call that a significant change? All the algorithms, all the flows, all the bugs... Sorry, your argument doesn't hold: it's possible to take major chunks of code and incorporate them into your application with minor or no changes.
