Maybe they meant a "binary patcheR"?

Supliying a a patcher that either works against a file or memory at runtime would probably be a way to circumvent GPL in this case.

Or maybe don't... just guessing.

Anyway I think it would be cleaner and better in the long run to have the gui as the copyrighted component and all the rest open and maintained by the community.
