Have you even looked at tg3.c or it's history?Just a quick google to find the discussion here:http://wiki.debian.org/KernelFirmwareLicensing with its note that the corrected license was committed here: http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=49cabf49abd7676d026a61baabf5aae9337a82be;hp=9beb1d587f690d5b2f9087f8f10c0ff9f6b66886They changed the kernel source then, but that doesn't mean they aren't under obligations of the GPL since they distributed it for *years* under the GPL.
Mistakes happen. Should all old instances disappear when a correction is made? I doubt if it's the only correction that has been made on a copyright over the years.
