I was under the impression that the FW-1 kernel code in Linux was a
loadable module and not built into a static, monolithic kernel (why does
Checkpoint always specify which vendor and kernel revision is required
if they supply their own?).

If it is loaded as a module, the GLP does not infect the license for the
code. There is no way Checkpoint is giving out its FW-1 code under the
GLP.
