there's nothing that prevents us from re-distributing modified copies
of the GPL, we just can't do so and claim that they are the GPL.  even
if you did want to nitpick that (why?), such a restriction is acceptable
according to the DFSG.  for example, many authors choose to license
their software under a 'modified GPL' or 'GPL-with-some-exceptions'.
