If I understand the GPL license correctly, by including any GPL coding in the 
Haiku project, you essentially force the entire Haiku code to be released under 
the GPL whenever you distribute it.  Is this not true?  (The GPL forces you to 
release code that you package with GPL code to be all under the GPL license -- 
part 2.b. of the license.)
