Once the grantor (Reyk) releases his code under that license, it must

Why is it so difficult to understand dual licensing?

Maybe because Reyk's code was never dual-licensed?

And yet a good portion of Theo's response, in particular his accusations of Alan Cox exhorting people to break the law, were directly related to dual licensing.
