Not contribute, but share the sources if they distribute a binary which uses code derived from GPL-ed one. Wireless router vendors used to share modified sources as an archive on some obscure ftp without comments and documentation (so you'll have a hard time building a binary from these sources). It's better than nothing, but this is not a contribution.
