Or even better two different packages with clearly defined licenses
(with the IPL part depending on the GPL one).

Licencing spaguetti is real hard for users/admins to handle. Please do

untangle such a mess manually.

Dual licensing is different. One can just choose his preferred license
and forget about the other one.
