That's probably incorrect.

While Mark is sole holder of copyright of Asterisk source code, I'm quite
positive that asterisk-win32 links to other GPL'd libraries, which would 
infringe on *their* copyright.

It would probably be not very hard to determine what asterisk-win32 links 
to based on the executable.
