...the GPL is clear that it applies to distribution rather than receipt, so the point (of whether the code was about to be reused by Sun, Microsoft, or some random guy who wanted to make his machine work) has no relevance at all.

What? Distributions about to reuse a driver, has no affect on the distribution clause? What do you think they would like to reuse it for?
