Not all BSD style licenses are compatible with the GPL:

If you read that whole FAQ, you can see that the GPL has problems with a
lot of licensing systems. You can also see that there are ways to gain
compatibility, such as the dual license scheme you mentioned, or by
ensuring that the GPL code is not linked or dynamically loaded into a
program with an incompatible license. You are right though that there
hasn't been a comprehensive explanation of how the GPL is incompatible
with the CDDL though.
It is not possible at all to include GPL code into a BSD project of
any BSDl flavor. So it depends on the person who likes to take and the person
who gives.....

And the person who sues... ;-)
