Gnus is distributed as its own package, but also GNU Emacs includes
Gnus in its distribution tarball. For that to happen, Gnus's
copyright must be completely held by the FSF. If we loosen the
restrictions for Gnus, then we can't have it included in Emacs
anymore.
That might not be such a bad thing, though. People sometimes have
trouble with load-path conflicts when trying to use a newer Gnus than
the one that came with their Emacs. Or they sometimes have trouble
because they're using the old version that came with their Emacs
instead of the latest version.
