IOW, according to the GFDL, you can use one license or the other - you
can't use both (so to call the GFDL a "non-exclusive license" deserves
some caveats).
Are you sure this is the correct reading of the GFDL? I see it as
meaning that you cannot take a GFDL'd document and relicense it. NOT
that the original author cannot release their own original work under
multiple licenses.
