If you mean unavailable to commercial products with closed licenses,
I say since ages. GPL released software _cannot_ be merged in such
products. There are a few other free-type licenses which are
compatible instead (e.g. BSD-like, old, new and variants). 
Those ones are the licenses MS likes, for obviuous reasons: it's free beer.
