That's true. However, haskell.org's fiscal sponsor receives pro bono legal services.
I'm interested in what you saw as "anti-copyleft FUD" though. That the code might be subject to the GPL and that caused problems? That's the only thing that did come from a lawyer. And it's really the only negative thing I saw about the GPL in this thread.
I may have been conflating threads, though the response to what I assume was just a lawyer asking a question seems excessive too.
