I kind of wonder at the way this is being reported.  Given their 
bankruptcy circumstances, I would be surprised 
if this went through without some kind of court approval.  For 
example, their attempt to sell off their patents 
was withdrawn when they got too much heat from the creditors on just 
how the deal was organized.  If they really 
have found somebody willing to put up $100 million (actual press 
releases say "up to") while taking on all of 
the potential legal liabilities of the Novell/IBM/RedHat legal cases 
then the court probably has to allow it. 
On the other hand, the conspiracy theorist in me says that reeks of 
something fishy...
