PS: Oh, and even if the license were free, chances are it'd still be 
incompatible with the GPL due to wording differences. I think an exception 
is unavoidable unless OpenCASCADE upstream (and if you use the community 
edition, also every single contributor to that fork) relicenses their code 
to the GPL or a GPL-compatible license. (Note that every single contributor 
to FreeCAD needs to agree to the exception. Yes, licenses are a PITA.)
