Is there any way of using the grub header without causing my kernel to become GPL? I'd like to use grub, but I also want to chose which license I use, rather than let grub's header choose for me.

  The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and
  how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we
  still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
