Yes, you create a combined work bound by the GPL. And the GPL permits
components of a GPL'd item to be freer than GPL (by the GPL definition of
free)

Correct. Actually you should never ever use "public domain". Even if you

public domain in some jurisdictions does not exempt you from legal
liability, and an exemption from legal liability clause means its not
public domain
