I read discussions about DD-WRT violating the GPL with their commercial x86 versions.

Can anyone shed some light on this? I was googling to compare tomato and dd-wrt to use one on my router. But I certainly don't want to use a GPL-unfriendly project, that's why I'm looking to confirm the allegation.

The allegation can be found here: http://www.bitsum.com/about-ddwrt.htm

Though the DD-WRT author does acknowledge having the NON-GPL license text in older versions...
