Personally, I wish the FDL had somehow been made compatible with it, but it isn't. One big issue that comes up immediately is that the old "Permission is granted..." style says nothing about opaque and transparent copies, so as far as I know it would be legally possible to distribute printed copies, for example, without the readers being able to get the source.

Corresponding source code
That explains why it has been chosen once upon its time, and
why the project has been accepted that way. (The original
AVRDUDE project has been completely licensed under a BSD-style
license, which was changed by the time it was submitted to
savannah, to fit into the GNU world.)
I still think it's a waste of time to even discuss these
nitpicking details, but whatever, we decided to dual-license
the documentation file to simply put an end onto that
pointless discussion.
