As far as I'm aware Firefox has a EULA among other large GPL'd projects, I've never seen it written anywhere that you cannot define other restrictions, beyond the GPL. It's true EULAs are usually used as an alternative to the GPL in proprietary software, however EULA is simply a generic term for any agreement the user makes.
