"All rights reserved" is a phrase used to invoke one's copyright in
Latin America prior to the some of the more recent rounds of IP
treaties.

It isn't needed any more, but it definitely does not conflict with the
GPL.  The author reserves all rights, and then grants you from those
rights the rights to distribute with the GPL.  It never has conflicted
with the GPL.  Ever.
