If this is actually necessary, we can go back and wrangle another
license change, but it is a fairly painful and unpleasant
process.

We changed to this license initially because of an objection to
a dual license (admittedly a poorly worded one).

The BSD license is compatible with the GPL, and it should not be
necessary to add any kind of dual license to it.
