The Wikimedia Foundation doesn't hold the copyrights over Wikimedia
content, it is merely a user that must follow the terms of the GFDL
like any mirror or fork. Wikimedia could, however, provide financial
or legal assistance to the authors whose copyright is infringed in a
lawsuit.
That would be fairly hypocritical, though, since Wikimedia itself
doesn't even follow the GFDL.
