And specifically, what I think is the current assignment 
(/gd/gnuorg/copyright/assign.future on fencepost) says:

  6. Developer hereby agrees that if he has or acquires hereafter any
  proprietary interest (including, without limitation, any patent or
  copyright interest) dominating the Works, the Program, the Program as
  enhanced by the Works, or other enhancements to the Program, or the
  use of any of those, such dominating interest will not be used to
  undermine the effect of this assignment, i.e. the Foundation and the
  general public will be licensed to use, in that program or programs
  and their derivative works, without royalty or limitation, the subject
  matter of the dominating interest.  This license provision will be
  binding on the assignees of, or other successors to, the dominating
  interest, as well as on Developer.  This license grant is
  nonexclusive, royalty-free and non-cancellable.

Note that users of glibc may use glibc facilities in proprietary programs 
if they follow the provisions of the LGPL (typically through dynamically 
linking to glibc).
