I don't think this is the case, Marvin.  You can do anything you want
with the code, but if you release a mod, you must release the source to
the mod.  In this way, Linux stays Linux and doesn't morph into a
million different things.  

The BSD license is fine, too, but it means that pieces of it can show up
in, oh, Windows NT without attribution.  The licenses accomplish
different things.
