"The question on the table is [...] whether we should let ndiswrapper continue using GPLONLY symbols. Quite frankly, my position on this has always been that the GPLv2 explicitly covers _derived_ works only, and that very obviously a Windows driver isn't a derived work of the kernel. So as far as I'm concerned, ndiswrapper may be distasteful from a technical and support angle, but not against the license."
