Just for completeness: you're free to GPL a derived work. The folks who
BSD-licensed it to you may consider that offensive, but the law doesn't
consider it wrong.
You may care a whole lot more for how these folks feel about you than
what the law permits you to do.
I'd consider switching to GPL only if I made substantial changes.
