> his opinion should carry a lot of weight

That's nice, but it's only one side. What about the opinion of the developers who wrote the module and licensed it under CDDL?

The incompatibility between CDDL and GPL is well-known, and the authors at Sun made it that way deliberately.

It's not kosher to just say, "Well the authors of the GPL software are okay with it, so it's fine." You need to respect the wishes of the developers who contributed the CDDL code to begin with.
