Daniel Wallace challenged the GPL in court on spectacularly weak grounds, not to defend a copyright infringement - he brought a sort of anti-trust case - and ended up helping the FSF quite a lot because they now have the judge's comments to cite in other cases. The defense's statement in this case indicates that they are just the sort of sucker that FSF would want to further back up GPL with case law. However, given the shallow pockets of the defendant, it's possible that they might not allow the case to run to completion.
