That's my understanding as well. There's nothing stopping a bit of
content being available under multiple licenses. In this case it's
available under CC-BY as a stand-alone work and GFDL as part of a
large work. I don't see any problem with that. There's nothing
stopping people using the original work under the original license
just because you've used it under a more restrictive one.
