Nobody has actually tried to legally challenge the GPL via a GPL wrapper, so there's nothing to enforce yet. It seems like there's widespread consensus that a GPL wrapper wouldn't work. Indeed, if it did work, it would make copyleft utterly pointless. Just write a simple wrapper around any GPL library you want and no more copyleft.
The situation with nvidia and VMWare is not about GPL wrappers.
