I think that you can do basically anything you want with BSD-licensed code (at 
least if it's the license version without advertising clause)  as long as you 
don't remove the original copyright notice, see

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_license

In particular, you can use it in GPL'ed or even proprietary code.

Regards
Frank
