Redhat distributes it's sources to everyone, thus making any violation of the no-restrictions-on-redistribution clause acedemic to the linux copyright holders who would be the claimants.

GRSecurity successfully prevents redistribution: it's violation is blatant and NOT academic.

A court can be shown the attempt and it's successful conclusion.

Quite different in substance from RedHat's possible violation.
