Can Red Hat and Novell settle? A simple patent license appears to violate the GPL (which I presume, but might be wrong, is the license the relevant code is under), since you need to pass on any patent grants that you have. It seems their settlement option would only be to get a patent license for anyone who uses the code, not only their own customers, which might cost more (if the other side even agrees to it).
Although, since both companies are in the same situation, they might split the cost between them.
