well for the update they did very little in regards to GPLed code. they did a few file changes to the kernel, but mostly only a few lines and optimizing a few things such as the ink display and how things work during sleep mode.
it looks like the 2.01 patch was actually done around the 12th of february and they packaged up all the legal GPL required stuff on the 20th for both versions. i am guessing new hardware production will have 2.01 pre installed in the next few weeks to month of delivery.
on the non GPL side of things many files were changed as Jesse has found. one interesting thing is the busybox package was updates but the source was not. they must have done some small changes in the compile options of the source.
