I can think of five immediately that I have had dealings with -
exobox
Disney
HP
Interval Research
Impara
The middle three in particular have/had very deep pockets and so make  
very attractive targets for suing. This typically means they worry  
about such matters and employ many legally qualified people to check  
up on licenses and risks. The fact that they all had no serious  
problem with the Squeak license tells me that it really shouldn't  
worry us much.
