Oh dear GNUtian dak, hint:

We replace the definition of modification with a definition of
modified (work), which we then use as the basis for our new generalized
definition of based on. This in turn provides us with an alternative to
the definitions in GPLv2 and Draft1 that incorporated the United States
copyright law term derivative work. See Opinion on Denationalization of
Terminology. We regard the well-established term extension (of a
program), used in the now-replaced definition of modification, to be
equivalent to adding material to the program.

"GPL has the same derivative rights concept [as UNIX]," according to
Sontag...

So it's just that "all your base are belong to" GNU. And SCO.
Oh, BTW:

Still says
"We also will be releasing several opinions on particular issues, no
later than 1 August. Several of the notes in the Rationale Document
refer to these opinions."
How long is "1 August" in the GNU Republic?
