GFDL is a non-exclusive licence.
Somewhat...
"You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document

parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this

parties remain in full compliance. "
So anyone using your GFDLed work under another license would
apparetnly automatically have her rights under the GFDL terminated.
At least, if that clause is upheld.
I don't think that it applies in the case at hand. We were talking
about Tony's user page. Assuming that what's on there was written
solely by him, he still has the right as the original grantor of the
licence to also grant rights to others that are different from the ones
expressed in the GFDL. Nobody else has the right to do that with Tony's
text.
