I don't know exactly what it means but if it is about putting in source
code files that the source was changed it is also in the GPL:

a)  You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

I think it is also about changing the name of the software, so I guess it
is not GPL compatible. Still it is free, as said in another mail.
