Why can substitutes not be offered for ZFS as a standalone module? I'm not a
lawyer nor do I understand much lawyerese, but AIUI, the problem stems from
the FSF lawyers thinking it wouldn't stand up in court to distribute CDDL
software linked against GPL'd software as one big binary. Could someone please
explain why it would not be acceptable to distribute substitutes of ZFS as a
*standalone kernel module*, rather than as a part of linux-libre?

Thanks!
