The source code needed to build GT.M on x86 GNU/Linux has been released as open source free software by Sanchez under GPL (the source code for other platforms has not been released as open source, and there is an article at http://www.mug-d.de/mboerse/2001_2/gtmlicensing.html discussing the fact that parts of GT.M are available under GPL and other parts are not).
