Roblimo is wrong on this No one is required to credit the author of the tux logo each time it's used. Not even slashdot credits him. He licensed it and said: use it, but if "anyone asks" then credit him.
And just to play devil's advocate: why does everyone revolt so badly when our work is not being credited? We collectively abuse lot's of other licenses, whether music, software etc.

... based on Konqueror, which I believe has a GNU license. Why are they even allowed to release it under a freebsd license?
Exactly, they would not have been able to release it under a BSD license if the original code was under a 'restrictive' GNU license. And you can be sure they ran it through their lawyers. Keep in mind that Safari is based on KHTML as well, and they don't release the source code at all. -- Thus your initial guess was wrong -- the license is not GPL
