You're confusing different things here:

 - gdb never had any problems with libunwind itself (it was initially
   released under GPL, now it's even under the MIT license so that the
   *BSD folks can use it for their kernel)

 - there is a gdb-specific patch which I wrote which needed a
   copyright assignment; this took a long time to settle but it's in
   place now

Summary: there are no legal issues in using libunwind.
