no matter how you turn Linus' arguments, he doesn't like anything else than ports from windows driver objects linked, and I can really agree with that. Whatever the laywers say about it is moot - only judges listen to them and Open Source doesn't listen to laywers (in generally). Plenty of vendors are already backing up Open Source too, and not just with t-shirts and penguins.
The only thing important is what GPL says. And GPL is clear here. KQemu must be a derived work (i.e. include some source (even C headres) from kernel and/or be bound just to a Linux kernel) to be forced to go under GPL. But neither it includes any kernel headres nor it's Linux only -- the very same binary (object file) can be used with *BSD as well as Windows. So KQemu can be legally licenced under any licence Fabrice chooses.
