Well, yes. "GM" stands for an exception applying to GPLed software.
In this sense the "GM" part doesn _change_ the license
text, though of course it does permit using of the software
in programs that don't use a GPL compatible license.
 (The fact that GMGPL is just GPL with exception becomes noticeable
when you start making changes to GMGPLed software: the exception
applies to instance of the software as given to you, not as
changed by you.)
