Practical but not-in-the-spirit-of-it answer: Tell him not to license it as GFDL but to just say that Wikipedia can use it. Then we use it as fair use and claim to disregard the Wikipedia-only license, knowing full well that he won't actually sue us for infringement since he already said we can use it.
Then please stop saying that "wikipedia can use it" when you are only referring to the en.wp.
If you want to make this picture free to use for wikipedia (regardless of the language), then the author has to put one file containing the image under a free license.
