P13 is correct, 3DR is maintaining its own branch of Ardupilot. Most things are getting merged back into normal Ardupilot master, but it is different.
They have released all code as required, and are compliant with the GPLv3 in doing this.
For the original version of Solo firmware, the HDOP check was replaced with a thorough check, using the EKF and velocity checks. It was discovered however that in some cases, this could still allow some errors, so HDOP (which is actually PDOP) was brought back in.

I can assure you P13 does know what he is talking about.
