Possible GPL violation on Mac App Store |

Someone is distributing an app called "UTM Virtual Machines" based on QEMU on Mac App Store [1]. Mac App Store has EULA, which is not compatible with GPL [2]. Apple's EULA imposes restrictions to users' rights, for instance it forbids reverse engineering. That contradicts GPL #6: "You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein."
Do the QEMU developers think that such GPL violation is acceptable?
