Is what Fred is doing even legal under the GNU FDL? All he is doing is 
mentioning in the first edit summary where the article came from - there is 
no mention of its source in the article itself.

Doesn't our implementation of the GNU FDL require a link-back to the source 
Wikipedia article and a mention of the source in the article? 

IMO each article that is based on a Wikipedia article should have the 
following section at the end:
