Authors of the code are always free to re-release their code in
whatever license they want.

The culprit is that if GPL code has ever reached one's hands, that
person is allowed to redistribute it as long and as much as he wants
under GPL. Hence there can be a situation when the same code is
circulating under two licenses and everything is clean legally
