I do not think you really archieve something with this. Someone may wrote
some 5 lines programm using your library and put all together under some
"Everything allowed" licence. Then anyone is allowed modify and put it
under some pay-for-it licence. 
The incompatibilies of gpl and other licences have some reson.
