NetLogo isn't just an interpreter.  It's largely a library.  Libraries present all sorts of, erm, problematic issues with regard to the GPL.  I'd have imagined you'd release it under a modified license (like, I dunno, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPL_linking_exception).  So anyway, watch out there!  Good luck with the release.
