If this is true, then its patently unenforceable. An NDA may no restrict an individuals ability to ply their trade, unless the said individual is compensated to not ply it elsewhere... so SCO's NDA is just another unenforceable intimidation tactic.

Actually, HiTechRedneck did a better job explaining it in his post in #29. Basically, Any knowledge you already have about a code or process is not exempted from the NDA. So as soon as you look, you can't use that code or process in the future, even if you knew about it beforehand. I don't know that the breadth of this kind of NDA has ever been tested. Some people are claiming that it would even affect different implementations of the viewed process. In any case, this was purposely done to keep people in the know from agreeing to view the "evidence."
