Oh yeah. As if FSF.org might sue me in my home EU court alleging GPL violation regarding linking... Dream on. They have no balls. But just in case... per Rome Convention on the law applicable to contractual obligations, I'll simply trigger straight-away US doctrine of copyright misuse (licensor's home law). Bye-bye FSF's copyrights on [L]GPL'd works. Long live [L]GPL-copyright impotent FSF. regards, alexander.
