First of all, the GPL does not state anything about software distributed under it's license has to be "usable".
It means, that if you are give a binary form of something under the GPL you have the right to the source code comprising it. But all portions of said binary code do not have to be under the GPL.
A perfect example are things like, Cedega (aka WineX) from transgaming. They are based on Wine, an opensource/GPL project. But, their Direct3D implementation on linux that is used in Cedega is -NOT- under the GPL.
World/Zone/EMuSharemem are GPL'd. LoginServer and ChanChannels are not GPL'd. End of story.
If you don't like it, take me to court.
