But how is this different from the BSD clause:

* Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright 
  notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the 
  documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

That was the substance of my question. Is this not a similar limitation 
on distribution imposed by the license? Why is this GPL-compatible, when 
the advertising clause is not?
