"Seems to me that since Q sued NOK on 11/4/2005 on this matter, the latest revision to the ETSI Policy is likely an effect rather than a cause of the litigation."

That is highly unlikely. Firstly, there were only 19 calendar days between the date of the suit and endorsement of the changes "by the ETSI General Assembly on 23 November 2005".

Secondly, communication -- between ETSI and the DG Competition of the EC -- relative to revisions in the wording of IPR Policy occurred many months earlier, in March and April 2005. (link above pp. 16-18)

"For all we know, this issue was addressed in the latest revision as a direct result of the discovery that Q's essential IPR was part of the GSM/GPRS/EDGE standard."

I suppose that's still possible.
