Indeed; however, IMO excerting the right to modify as defined by the

type of certification does carry that kind of negative consequence.
DFSG #4 was specifically written explicitly to accomodate a situation
where the user would potentially lose the right to support if he
modified the program. ABISource's intent was to support their official
version only. Now, you can always go back to the official version when
you need support. But if you are going to modify the program, it only
seems fair that you should take on the support burden for your modification.
