This is what I got from the FSF:
|As far as we know, the maintainer is incorrect on this point. "All
|rights reserved" is legally null these days and poses no compatibility
|issues. Years ago, it was required to trigger the international
|copyright laws, but now that happens by default.
|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_rights_reserved discusses the matter
|briefly.
|
|In our view, the GPL and FreeBSD licenses are and remain compatible.
|
|Hope this helps. Best regards,

This also matches what I've found at [0] in paragraph a).
