Legal definition of the term "derived software" is often confusing.
Let me put in simple terms. 

Code from CDDL and GPL *cannot* be combined together. 
A GPL'd code cannot even link to a library licensed under CDDL.

How ever it is possible to dual license (GPL/CDDL) the code.
One good example is Mozilla project's triple licensing scheme
(MPL/GPL/LGPL).
