Fine:

  My point, though, is that I believe that the differences between the
  restrictions in the OpenSSL license and the GFDL license are
  sufficient such that one cannot say that "If OpenSSL is allowed, then
  GFDL documentation with the minimum front and back cover texts
  prescribed by the current GNU maintainer guidelines and no other
  explicitly invariant material documentation should be allowed as
  well."
